Entropy of Rotating Misner String Spacetimes

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

Using a boundary counterterm prescription motivated by the AdS/CFT conjecture, I evaluate the energy, entropy and angular momentum of the class of Kerr-NUT/bolt-AdS spacetimes. As in the non-rotating case, when the NUT charge is nonzero the entropy is no longer equal to one-quarter of the area due to the presence of the Misner string. When the cosmological constant is also non-zero, the entropy is bounded from above.
