High Energy Physics - Theory 2015-06-26 v2

Abstract

The 3-d BTZ black hole represents an orbifold of AdS3AdS_3 gravity. The UV as well as the IR region of the CFT is governed by a gauged SL(2, R) WZW model. In the UV it corresponds to a light-cone gauging (Liouville model) whereas in the IR it is a space-like gauging (2-d black hole).
