In this paper, we review recent progress on the holographic understanding of the
entanglement entropy in the anti-de Sitter space/conformal field theory (AdS/CFT) …

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 …

In these lecture notes we describe recent progress in our understanding of attractor
mechanism and entropy of extremal black holes based on the entropy function formalism …

We point out that the entropy of (near) extremal black holes can be interpreted as the
entanglement entropy of dual conformal quantum mechanics via AdS 2/CFT 1. As an explicit …

The Kerr/CFT correspondence has been recently broadened to the general extremal black
holes under the assumption that the central charges from the non-gravitational fields vanish …

We study the asymptotic Virasoro symmetry which acts on the near-horizon region of
extremal four-dimensional black hole solutions of gravity theories with higher-derivative …

A bstract We find broad classes of exact 4-dimensional asymptotically flat black hole
solutions in Einstein-Maxwell theories with a non-minimally coupled dilaton and its nontrivial …

We consider extremal black hole solutions to the vacuum Einstein equations in dimensions
greater<? format?> than five. We prove that the near-horizon geometry of any such black …

These lectures provide a pedagogical, introductory review of the so-called Attractor
Mechanism (AM) at work in two different 4-dimensional frameworks: extremal black holes in …

The general solutions of the radial attractor flow equations for extremal black holes, both for
non-BPS with non-vanishing central charge Z and for Z= 0, are obtained for the so-called stu …
