Holographic Description of AdS2 Black Holes
نویسندگان
چکیده
We develop the holographic renormalization of AdS2 gravity systematically. We find that a bulk Maxwell term necessitates a boundary mass term for the gauge field and verify that this unusual term is invariant under gauge transformations that preserve the boundary conditions. We determine the energy-momentum tensor and the central charge, recovering recent results by Hartman and Strominger. We show that our expressions are consistent with dimensional reduction of the AdS3 energy-momentum tensor and the Brown–Henneaux central charge. As an application of our results we interpret the entropy of AdS2 black holes as the ground state entropy of a dual CFT.

A Multi-boundary AdS Orbifold and DLCQ Holography: A Universal Holographic Description of Extremal Black Hole Horizons
We examine a stationary but non-static asymptotically AdS3 spacetime with two causally connected conformal boundaries, each of which is a “null cylinder”, namely a cylinder with a null direction identified. This spacetime arises from three different perspectives: (i) as a non-singular, causally regular orbifold of global AdS3 by boosts, (ii) as a Penrose-like limit focusing on the horizon of ex...
متن کاملThe Kerr/CFT Correspondence and String Theory
The Kerr/CFT correspondence is a holographic duality between a two dimensional chiral conformal field theory (CFT) and the very near horizon limit of an extremal black hole, which includes an AdS2 structure. To understand the dual chiral CFT2, we apply the Kerr/CFT correspondence to a certain class of black holes embedded in string theory, which include the D1-D5-P and the BMPV black holes, and...
متن کاملVacuum States for AdS2 Black Holes
An AdS2 black hole spacetime is an AdS2 spacetime together with a preferred choice of time. The Boulware, Hartle-Hawking and SL(2,R) invariant vacua are constructed, together with their Green functions and stress tensors, for both massive and massless scalars in an AdS2 black hole. The classical Bekenstein-Hawking entropy is found to be independent of the temperature, but at one loop a non-zero...

We show that there is a close correspondence between the physical properties of holographic metals near charged black holes in anti-de Sitter (AdS) space, and the fractionalized Fermi liquid phase of the lattice Anderson model. The latter phase has a ‘small’ Fermi surface of conduction electrons, along with a spin liquid of local moments. This correspondence implies that certain mean-field gapl...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Quantum Mechanical Description of Four Dimensional Black Holes
By assuming the existence of a novel multipronged string state for D-particles interacting with D-brane intersections in type IIA string theory, we are able to derive a quantum mechanical description of supersymmetric Reissner-Nordstrom black holes. A supersymmetric index calculation provides evidence for this conjecture. The quantum mechanical system becomes two decoupled conformal quantum mec...
