Heating up holography for single-trace J T ¯ $$ J\overline{T} $$ deformations

Abstract We study thermodynamic aspects of a tractable toy model of holography for extremal Kerr black holes proposed in [1]. On the gravity side, the theory can be described by the worldsheet action of string theory on a warped AdS3 background supported by NS-NS flux. Once we turn on temperature, t...

description Abstract We study thermodynamic aspects of a tractable toy model of holography for extremal Kerr black holes proposed in [1]. On the gravity side, the theory can be described by the worldsheet action of string theory on a warped AdS3 background supported by NS-NS flux. Once we turn on temperature, the deformed background is described by a black string solution of type IIB supergravity that features a locally warped AdS3 factor. The dual field theory is conjectured to be a single-trace version of a J T ¯ $$ J\overline{T} $$ -deformed CFT at finite temperature. As evidence for the correspondence we show that the spectrum of strings winding on the deformed background agrees with the spectrum of J T ¯ $$ J\overline{T} $$ -deformed CFTs. Furthermore, we show that the gravitational charges of the black string match the averaged charges of a thermal ensemble in the dual field theory. Finally, we reproduce the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of the black string from the microscopic density of states of J T ¯ $$ J\overline{T} $$ -deformed CFTs.
