AdS$_2$/CFT$_1$ correspondence and near-extremal black hole entropy

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

We provide a realization of the AdS2_2/CFT1_1 correspondence in terms of asymptotic symmetries of the AdS2×_2\timesS1^1 and AdS2×_2\timesS2^2 geometries arising in near-extremal BTZ and Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes. Cardy's formula exactly accounts for the deviation of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy from extremality. We also argue that this result can be extended to more general black holes near extremality.
