Classical and Thermodynamic Stability of Black Branes
read the original abstract
It is argued that many non-extremal black branes exhibit a classical Gregory-Laflamme instability if, and only if, they are locally thermodynamically unstable. For some black branes, the Gregory-Laflamme instability must therefore disappear near extremality. For the black $p$-branes of the type II supergravity theories, the Gregory-Laflamme instability disappears near extremality for $p=1,2,4$ but persists all the way down to extremality for $p=5,6$ (the black D3-brane is not covered by the analysis of this paper). This implies that the instability also vanishes for the near-extremal black M2 and M5-brane solutions.

New analytic solutions of non-SUSY black branes in $10$-D heterotic supergravity and the phase transition
New exact non-SUSY black brane solutions in 10D heterotic supergravity with two gauge charges show a spontaneous symmetry breaking and dynamical instability at low temperature that predicts additional black hole solutions.
