Abstract: We give an 11 and 10 dimensional supergravity description of M5-branes wrapping 4-cylces in a Calabi-Yau manifold and carrying momentum along a transverse S1. These wrapped branes descend to a class of N=2 black holes in 4 dimensions. Our description gives the conditions on the geometry interpolating between the asymptotic and near-horizon regions. We employ the ideas of geometric transitions to show that the near horizon geometry in ten dimensions is AdS2imesS2imesCY3 while in 11 dimensions it is AdS3imesS2imesCY3. We also show how to obtain the complete N=2 black hole supergravity solution in 4 dimensions for this class of black holes starting with our 11-dimensional description. Finally, we generalize our results on the 10 and 11 dimensional near horizon supergravity solution to the case of black holes carrying arbitrary charges (D0-D2-D4-D6 in the type IIA description). We argue that the near horizon geometry corresponding to wrapped D6 and D2 branes in 11 dimensions is AdS2imesS3imesCY3.
