We consider the conformal field theory which is dual to the Taub-Bolt-AdS spacetime. It is shown that the Cardy-Verlinde formula for the entropy of the conformal field theory agrees precisely with the entropy of the Taub-Bolt-AdS spacetime,…
We examine the Cardy-Verlinde formula for finite temperature N=4 Super Yang-Mills theory on $R\times S^3$, and its AdS dual. We find that curvature effects introduce non-trivial corrections to thermodynamic quantities computed on both…
We analyze different types of quantum corrections to the Cardy-Verlinde entropy formula in a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe and in an (anti)-de Sitter space. In all cases we show that quantum corrections can be represented by an…

We argue that the thermodynamics of conformal field theories with AdS duals exhibits a remarkable universality. At strong coupling, a Cardy-Verlinde entropy formula holds even when R-charges or bulk supergravity scalars are turned on. In…
We examine the recently proposed technique of adding boundary counterterms to the gravitational action for spacetimes which are locally asymptotic to anti-de Sitter. In particular, we explicitly identify higher order counterterms, which…
We discuss the different bounds on entropy in the context of two-dimensional cosmology. We show that in order to obtain well definite bounds one has to use the scale symmetry of the gravitational theory. We then extend the recently found…
We discuss some aspects related to holography of Anti-de Sitter (AdS) dyonic hairy black holes, which break the conformal symetry of the boundary. We use counterterms for the scalar field that satisfies mixed boundary conditions to compute…

We show that the modified Cardy-Verlinde formula without the Casimir effect term is satisfied by asymptotically flat charged black holes in arbitrary dimensions. Thermodynamic quantities of the charged black holes are shown to satisfy the…
Cardy-Verlinde (CV) formula relates the entropy of a conformal field theory (CFT) in arbitrary dimensions to its total energy (with an appropriate insertion of additional internal energy for charged systems) and Casimir energy. While…
The Cardy-Verlinde formula is further verified by using the Kerr-Newman-AdS$_4$ and Kerr-Newman-dS$_4$ black holes. In the Kerr-Newman-AdS$_4$ spacetime, we find that, for strongly coupled CFTs with AdS duals, to cast the entropy of the CFT…

We discuss and compare at length the results of two methods used recently to describe the thermodynamics of Taub-NUT solutions in a deSitter background. In the first approach ($\mathbb{% C}$-approach), one deals with an analytically…
The AdS/CFT correspondence is employed to derive logarithmic corrections to the Cardy-Verlinde formula when thermal fluctuations in the Anti-de Sitter black hole are accounted for. The qualitative effect of these corrections on the…
Two dimensional conformal field theories, can be described by their pseudo Goldstone bosons when the conformal symmetry is spontaneously and anomalously broken. We show that the Schwarzian action of these bosons leads to the Cardy formula…
