On the gravity side, the theory can be described by the worldsheet action of string theory on a warped AdS$_3$ 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 AdS$_3$ factor. The dual field theory is conjectured to be a single-trace version of a $J\\bar{T}$-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 $J\\bar{T}$-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 $J\\bar{T}$-deformed CFTs.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-07-08T17:59:36.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dual field theory", "holography", "deformed cft", "deformations", "extremal kerr black holes" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 36, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
