While the supergravity limit of AdS/CFT has been extensively explored, the regime in which stringy dynamics dominate, characterized by the emergence of an infinite tower of higher-spin massive modes, is far less understood. In this work, we…
Near an event horizon, the action of general relativity acquires a new asymptotic conformal symmetry. Using two-dimensional dilaton gravity as a test case, I show that this symmetry results in a chiral Virasoro algebra with a calculable…

We explore the spacetime structure near non-extremal horizons in any spacetime dimension greater than two and discover a wealth of novel results: 1. Different boundary conditions are specified by a functional of the dynamical variables,…
Synthetic horizons in models for quantum matter provide an alternative route to explore fundamental questions of modern gravitational theory. Here, we apply these concepts to the problem of emergence of thermal quantum states in the…
Isolated horizons that admit the Hopf bundle structure $H\rightarrow S_2$ are investigated, however the null direction is allowed not to be tangent to the bundle fibres. The geometry of such horizons is characterised by data set on a…
We describe a midi-superspace quantization scheme for generic single horizon black holes in which only the spatial diffeomorphisms are fixed. The remaining Hamiltonian constraint yields an infinite set of decoupled eigenvalue equations: one…

We develop basic tools and matching conditions to interpolate between asymptotic and near horizon symmetries. We focus on black holes in three dimensions. In particular, we match Brown--Henneaux boundary conditions at infinity, which yields…
