abstract
We review and extend recent attempts to find a precise relation between extremal black hole entropy and degeneracy of microstates using AdS_2/CFT_1 correspondence. Our analysis leads to a specific relation between degeneracy of black hole microstates and an appropriately defined partition function of string theory on the near horizon geometry, -- named the quantum entropy function. In the classical limit this reduces to the usual relation between statistical entropy and Wald entropy.

Holography, Brick Wall and a Little Hierarchy Problem
A boundary-anchored brick wall definition in holography matches 't Hooft thermodynamics for BTZ but shows a slightly subleading area-law coefficient in the exact partition function unless the cutoff is trans-Planckian or extra species are added.
