Jordan Algebras and Extremal Black Holes
نویسنده
چکیده
We review various properties of the exceptional Euclidean Jordan algebra of degree three. Euclidean Jordan algebras of degree three and their corresponding Freudenthal triple systems were recently shown to be intimately related to extremal black holes in N = 2, d = 4 homogeneous supergravities. Using a novel type of eigenvalue problem with eigenmatrix solutions, we elucidate the rich matrix geometry underlying the exceptional N = 2, d = 4 homogeneous supergravity and explore the relations to extremal black holes.

All four-dimensional static, spherically symmetric, two-charge Abelian Kaluza–Klein black holes and their CFT duals
We derive the dual conformal field theory Virasoro algebras from the algebra of conserved diffeomorphism charges for a large class of Abelian Kaluza–Klein black holes. Under certain conditions, such as non-vanishing electric and magnetic monopole charges, the Kaluza–Klein black holes have a Reissner– Nordstrom spacetime structure. For the non-extremal charged Kaluza–Klein black holes, we use th...
متن کاملHolographic Duals of Kaluza-Klein Black Holes
We apply Brown-Henneaux’s method to the 5D extremal rotating Kaluza-Klein black holes essentially following the calculation of the Kerr/CFT correspondence, which is not based on supersymmetry nor string theory. We find that there are two completely different Virasoro algebras that can be obtained as the asymptotic symmetry algebras according to appropriate boundary conditions. The microscopic e...

As in the grand canonical treatment of Reissner-Nordström black holes in anti-de Sitter spacetime, the canonical ensemble formulation also shows that non-extremal black holes tend to have lower action than extremal ones. However, some small non-extremal black holes have higher action, leading to the possibility of transitions between non-extremal and extremal black holes. Black hole thermodynam...

متن کاملExtremal Black Hole/CFT Correspondence in (Gauged) Supergravities
We extend the investigation of the recently proposed Kerr/CFT correspondence to large classes of rotating black hole solutions in gauged and ungauged supergravities. The correspondence, proposed originally for four-dimensional Kerr black holes, asserts that the quantum states in the near-horizon region of an extremal rotating black hole are holographically dual to a two-dimensional chiral theor...
