Abstract

Freudenthal duality is, as of now, the unique non-linear map on electric-magnetic (e.m.) charges which is a symmetry of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of extremal black holes, displaying the Attractor Mechanism (possibly, up to some flat directions) in Maxwell-Einstein-scalar theories in four space-time dimensions and with non-trivial symplectic e.m. duality. In this paper, we put forward an effective approach to a consistent generalization of Freudenthal duality to near-extremal black holes, whose entropy is obtained within a Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity upon dimensional reduction. We name such a generalization near-extremal Freudenthal duality. Upon such a duality, two near-extremal black holes with two different (and both small) temperatures have the same entropy when their e.m. charges are related by a Freudenthal transformation. By exploiting Descartes’ rule of signs as well as Sturm’s Theorem, we show that our formulation of the near-extremal Freudenthal duality is analytical and unique.
