Electromagnetic Duality in Dyonic RN/CFT Correspondence

Understand

The area law of Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of the black hole suggests that the black hole should have a lower-dimensional holographic description.

• It has been found recently that such holographic pictures could be set up from the study of the thermodynamics of both outer and inner horizons for a large class of rotating and charged black holes.
• For a four-dimensional dyonic Reissner-Nordstr\"om black hole, its thermodynamics indicates that it has multiple holographic pictures not only the electric and magnetic ones corresponding to the conserved electric and magnetic charges carried by the black hole, but also the more generic ones generated by the $SL(2,Z)$ transformations.
• We show that this $SL(2,Z)$ group originates from the underlying electromagnetic duality symmetry in the Einstein-Maxwell theory.
