Lanczos–Lovelock models of gravity

T Padmanabhan, D Kothawala - Physics Reports, 2013‏ - Elsevier
Lanczos–Lovelock models of gravity represent a natural and elegant generalization of
Einstein's theory of gravity to higher dimensions. They are characterized by the fact that the …

The Kerr/CFT correspondence and its extensions

G Compère - Living Reviews in Relativity, 2017‏ - Springer
We present a first-principles derivation of the main results of the Kerr/CFT correspondence
and its extensions using only tools from gravity and quantum field theory. Firstly, we review …

Thermodynamical aspects of gravity: new insights

T Padmanabhan - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2010‏ - iopscience.iop.org
The fact that one can associate thermodynamic properties with horizons brings together
principles of quantum theory, gravitation and thermodynamics and possibly offers a window …

Aspects of the BMS/CFT correspondence

G Barnich, C Troessaert - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2010‏ - Springer
After a review of symmetries and classical solutions involved in the AdS 3/CFT 2
correspondence, we apply a similar analysis to asymptotically flat spacetimes at null infinity …

The kerr/cft correspondence

M Guica, T Hartman, W Song, A Strominger - Physical Review D—Particles …, 2009‏ - APS
Quantum gravity in the region very near the horizon of an extreme Kerr black hole (whose
angular momentum and mass are related by J= GM 2) is considered. It is shown that …

Three-dimensional quantum geometry and black holes

M Banados - AIP Conference Proceedings, 1999‏ - pubs.aip.org
We review some aspects of three-dimensional quantum gravity with emphasis in the 'CFT→
Geometry'map that follows from the Brown-Henneaux conformal algebra. The general …

General logarithmic corrections to black-hole entropy

S Das, P Majumdar, RK Bhaduri - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2002‏ - iopscience.iop.org
We compute leading-order corrections to the entropy of any thermodynamic system due to
small statistical fluctuations around equilibrium. When applied to black holes, these …

Logarithmic corrections to black hole entropy, from the Cardy formula

S Carlip - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2000‏ - iopscience.iop.org
Many recent attempts to calculate black hole entropy from first principles rely on conformal
field theory techniques. By examining the logarithmic corrections to the Cardy formula, I …

Black hole entropy from conformal field theory in any dimension

S Carlip - Physical Review Letters, 1999‏ - APS
Restricted to a black hole horizon, the “gauge” algebra of surface deformations in general
relativity contains a Virasoro subalgebra with a calculable central charge. The fields in any …
