We construct a 2-dimensional CFT, in the form of a Liouville theory, in the near horizon limit of 4- and 3-dimensional black holes. The near horizon CFT assumes 2-dimensional black hole solutions first introduced by Christensen and Fulling…
We show how to remove from the rotating C-metric spacetime, which describes accelerating Kerr black holes, both conical singularities. This can be done by embedding the metric into a swirling gravitational universe, through a proper Ehlers…

We prove an intrinsic analogue of Hawking's rigidity theorem for extremal horizons in arbitrary dimensions: any compact cross-section of a rotating extremal horizon in a spacetime satisfying the null energy condition must admit a Killing…
In this paper, we develop a method to extract the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of $D$-dimensional black holes using the entanglement entropy of a lower-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT). This approach relies on two key observations. On…

In this paper we discuss the question of whether the entropy of cosmological horizon in Topological Reissner-Nordstr\"om- de Sitter spaces can be described by the Cardy-Verlinde formula, which is supposed to be an entropy formula of…
We examine the linearized equations around extremal Kerr horizon and give some arguments towards stability of the horizon with respect to generic (non-symmetric) linear perturbation of near horizon geometry.
We compute greybody factors for near extreme Kerr black holes in D=4 and D=5. In D=4 we include four charges so that our solutions can be continuously deformed to the BPS limit. In D=5 we include two independent angular momenta so…
We revisit the Kerr black hole as cast in the Boyer-Lindquist, Kerr-Schild and Weyl canonical coordinates, and calculate its total mass/energy and total angular momentum by using linearized gravity along with its background Killing…

Weyl conformal symmetry can solve the problem the spacetime singularities present in Einstein's gravity. In a recent paper, two of us have found a singularity-free rotating black hole solution in conformal gravity. In addition to the mass…
We propose a different approach to the analysis of symmetries in the near-horizon region of black holes. The idea is presented here for spherically symmetric black holes, for which we have shown that the generators of hidden symmetries can…
We show that the horizon instability of the extremal Kerr black hole is associated with a singular branch point in the Green function at the superradiant bound frequency. We study generic initial data supported away from the horizon and…
We show that the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy associated with any black hole undergoes logarithmic corrections when small thermodynamic fluctuations around equilibrium are taken into account. Thus, the corrected expression for black hole…

Associated to every stationary extremal black hole is a unique near-horizon geometry, itself a solution of the field equations. These latter spacetimes are more tractable to analyze and most importantly, retain properties of the original…
A modified version of the Reissner-Nordstrom metric is proposed on the grounds of the nonlinear electrodynamics model. The source of curvature is an anisotropic fluid with $p_{r} = -\rho$ which resembles the Maxwell stress tensor at $r >>…
