The authors' main claim We describe analytically the evaporation process which turns out to be compatible with the third law of thermodynamics, i.e., an infinite amount of time is required for the black hole to decay to extremality.

We study the near-horizon AdS_2\timesS^2 geometry of evaporating near-extremal Reissner-Nordstrom black holes interacting with null matter. The non-local (boundary) terms t_{\pm}, coming from the effective theory corrected with the quantum Polyakov-Liouville action, are treated as dynamical variables. We describe analytically the evaporation process which turns out to be compatible with the third law of thermodynamics, i.e., an infinite amount of time is required for the black hole to decay to extremality. Finally we comment briefly on the implications of our results for the information loss problem.

We study the near-horizon AdS_2\timesS^2 geometry of evaporating near-extremal Reissner-Nordstrom black holes interacting with null matter.

We describe analytically the evaporation process which turns out to be compatible with the third law of thermodynamics, i.e., an infinite amount of time is required for the black hole to decay to extremality.

We find that an infinite amount of time is required for the black hole to decay to extremality.

The corresponding one-loop quantum theory remains solvable and allows to follow analytically the evaporation process which is shown to require an infinite amount of time.

Recently, there has been renewed interest in Jackiw–Teitelboim (JT) gravity [ref] , a two dimensional theory of gravity that emerges in various physical contexts, such as the study of the near–horizon dynamics of nearly extreme black holes [ref] , or as a partial gravitational dual of certain one–dimensional quantum mechanical systems pertinent to studies of condensed matter and quantum chaos.

Describing the low-energy dynamics of a wide class of near-extremal black holes and branes [ref] , JT gravity also features in a precise realization of holographic AdS$_2$/CFT$_1$, arising as the low-energy gravitational dual to the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) 1D quantum mechanical system [ref] .

A popular such model is classical JT gravity in $AdS_2$ [ref] , following from a spherical reduction of the Einstein–Hilbert action describing near-extremal black holes with near-horizon geometry $AdS_2×X$ [ref] , where $X$ is the transverse space whose size is controlled by the dilaton.
