Abstract

We study the extremal rotating spacetimes with a NUT twist in the context of recently proposed Kerr/CFT correspondence. The Kerr/CFT correspondence states that the near-horizon states of an extremal four (or higher) dimensional black hole could be identified with a certain chiral conformal field theory. The corresponding Virasoro algebra is generated with a class of diffeomorphism which preserves an appropriate boundary condition on the near-horizon geometry. We combine the calculated central charges with the expected form of the temperature, using the Cardy formula to obtain the microscopically entropy of the extremal rotating spacetimes with a NUT twist. All results are in agreement with the macroscopic entropy of the extremal spacetimes.
