Title

WAdS3/CFT2 correspondence in New Massive Gravity
Coauthors Laura Donnay

Abstract

We study the asymptotic symmetries of three-dimensional Warped Anti-de Sitter (WAdS) spaces in parity-even three-dimensional massive gravity. For a specific choice of asymptotic boundary conditions, the algebra of charges is shown to be the semidirect sum of Virasoro algebra and an affine u^(1)k Ka\v{c}-Moody algebra. We show that the WAdS black hole configurations organize in terms of two commuting Virasoro algebras in such a way that the conformal field theory description allows for a microscopic derivation of their entropy.
