Killing Horizons Kill Horizon Degrees
Frequently it is argued that the microstates responsible for the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy should arise from some physical degrees of freedom located near or on the black hole horizon. In this Essay we elucidate that instead entropy may emerge from the conversion of physical degrees of freedom, attached to a generic boundary, into unobservable gauge degrees of freedom attached to the horizon. ...
متن کاملBlack Hole Entropy from Near–Horizon Microstates
Black holes whose near–horizon geometries are locally, but not necessarily globally, AdS3 (three–dimensional anti-de Sitter space) are considered. Using the fact that quantum gravity on AdS3 is a conformal field theory, we microscopically compute the black hole entropy from the asymptotic growth of states. Precise numerical agreement with the Bekenstein-Hawking area formula for the entropy is f...
متن کاملEntropy from Conformal Field Theory at Killing Horizons
On a manifold with boundary, the constraint algebra of general relativity may acquire a central extension, which can be computed using covariant phase space techniques. When the boundary is a (local) Killing horizon, a natural set of boundary conditions leads to a Virasoro subalgebra with a calculable central charge. Conformal field theory methods may then be used to determine the density of st...
متن کاملStatic near-horizon geometries in five dimensions
We consider the classification of static near-horizon geometries of stationary extremal (not necessarily BPS) black hole solutions of five dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory coupled to a Chern-Simons term with coupling ξ (with ξ = 1 corresponding to supergravity). Assuming the black holes have two rotational symmetries, we show that their near-horizon geometries are either the direct product A...
متن کاملD-branes in some near-horizon geometries
I review some properties of D-branes in the SU(2) and SL(2,R) WZW models. I comment on a potential difficulty for the realization of ‘warped brane worlds’ in string theory. This short note is based on a talk given at the Strings’01 conference in Mumbay. Unité mixte du CNRS et de l’Ecole Normale Supérieure, UMR 8549.
