چکیده
2 Acknowledgements I want to thank my advisor Prof. Luciano Vanzo, who already at the time of my graduation thesis introduced me to black hole physics and gave me a lot of suggestions for my research work in the last years. I want also thank Prof. Sergio Zerbini and Dr. Valter Moretti for all the useful discussions during those research years. A warm thank goes also to Nicola Pinamonti with whose cooperation a lot of my research work was done. Last but not least I want to thank Marcello Ortaggio, Marco Caldarelli and Enrico Degiuli for their encouragement and for having made my working place, with interesting discussions, stimulating and interesting.

Near-horizon conformal symmetry and black hole entropy.
Near an event horizon, the action of general relativity acquires a new asymptotic conformal symmetry. For two-dimensional dilaton gravity, this symmetry results in a chiral Virasoro algebra, and Cardy's formula for the density of states reproduces the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy. This lends support to the notion that black hole entropy is controlled universally by conformal symmetry near the hor...
متن کاملHolographic dual of linear dilaton black hole in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton-axion gravity
Motivated by the recently proposed Kerr/CFT correspondence, we investigate the holographic dual of the extremal and non-extremal rotating linear dilaton black hole in Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton-Axion Gravity. For the case of extremal black hole, by imposing the appropriate boundary condition at spatial infinity of the near horizon extremal geometry, the Virasoro algebra of conserved charges assoc...
متن کاملInterpretation of Black Hole Entropy
In this paper we will compute the entropy of a Schwarzschild black hole by finding a classical central charge of the Virasoro algebra of a liouville theory and using the Cardy formula. This is done by performing a dimensional reduction of the Einstein-Hilbert action with the Ansatz of spherical symmetry and writing the metric in conformally flat form. We obtain two coupled field equations and u...

متن کاملBlack Hole Entropy from Horizon Conformal Field Theory
String theory and “quantum geometry” have recently offered independent statistical mechanical explanations of black hole thermodynamics. But these successes raise a new problem: why should models with such different microscopic degrees of freedom yield identical results? I propose that the asymptotic behavior of the density of states at a black hole horizon may be determined by an underlying sy...
