Hidden conformal symmetry of extremal Kerr-Bolt spacetimes
We show that extremal Kerr-Bolt spacetimes have a hidden conformal symmetry. In this regard, we consider the wave equation of a massless scalar field propagating in extremal Kerr-Bolt spacetimes and find in the ”near region”, the wave equation in extremal limit can be written in terms of the SL(2, R...

Zusammenfassung: | We show that extremal Kerr-Bolt spacetimes have a hidden conformal symmetry. In this regard, we consider the wave equation of a massless scalar field propagating in extremal Kerr-Bolt spacetimes and find in the ”near region”, the wave equation in extremal limit can be written in terms of the SL(2,
R
) quadratic Casimir.
Moreover, we obtain the microscopic entropy of the extremal Kerr-Bolt spacetimes also we calculate the correlation function of a near-region scalar field and find perfect agreement with the dual 2D CFT. |
