abstract

We study the near horizon limit of a four dimensional extreme rotating black hole. The limiting metric is a completely nonsingular vacuum solution, with an enhanced symmetry group SL(2,R) x U(1). We show that many of the properties of this solution are similar to the AdS_2 x S^2 geometry arising in the near horizon limit of extreme charged black holes. In particular, the boundary at infinity is a timelike surface. This suggests the possibility of a dual quantum mechanical description. A five dimensional generalization is also discussed.

Local Origin of Hidden Symmetry in Rotating Spacetimes

gr-qc · 2026-03-09 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Under stationary axisymmetry and no mixed energy-momentum fluxes, the Einstein equations force a constant-Schwarzian constraint that locally selects Kerr-type hidden symmetry.

Charged, rotating black holes in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory

gr-qc · 2025-06-18 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Numerical construction of asymptotically flat charged rotating black holes in EMd theory for arbitrary dilaton coupling gamma, with analysis of parameter space, zero-temperature limits, and hints of non-uniqueness.

Stationary generalizations for the vacuum ring wormhole

gr-qc · 2026-05-26 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Numerical non-perturbative stationary vacuum ring wormhole solutions invariant under throat reflections, with slow-rotation M ~ J^2, fast-rotation J = M^2, and limits mimicking extremal Kerr.

Universal Lichnerowicz Lifting of Near-Horizon Soft Modes

hep-th · 2026-06-25 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

The universal logarithmic temperature dependence in near-extremal black hole thermodynamics originates from the first-order lifting of Lichnerowicz tensor zero modes in a 2D maximally symmetric throat, which after normalization projects to the Schwarzian sector independently of parent geometry detai

Probing decoupled Throats of AdS$_{D}$ Black Holes in $D=6,7$

hep-th · 2025-11-19 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Near-EVH limits of AdS6 and AdS7 black holes produce conformally related lower-dimensional black hole solutions in EMMD gravity, opening a potential path to microscopic entropy counting for non-AdS black holes via higher-dimensional AdS/CFT.
