Horizon Conformal Field Theories from $Ad{S}_2$ Black Holes

Abstract

We show that the very near horizon region of nonextreme black holes, which can be described by horizon CFTs, are related to $Ad{S}_2$ Rindler spaces. The latter are $Ad{S}_2$ black holes with specific masses and can be described by states of either $D=1$ or $D=2$ CFTs. The central charges of these CFTs and the conformal weights of their states that correspond to the nonextreme black holes exactly match those predicted by the horizon CFTs, providing supporting evidence for this description.
