Abstract

We examine the dual conformal field theory for extremal charged black holes in five-dimensional minimal supergravity with two independent angular momenta. The conformal field theory Virasoro algebra, central charge and temperature are calculated. Additionally the conformal field theory entropy is calculated using the Cardy formula and agrees with the Bekenstein-Hawking black hole entropy. The central charges are directly proportional to the angular momentum components of the black hole. In five and higher dimensions, rotations of the spacetime correspond to rotations of the central charges leading to an apparent symmetry relating the conformal field theories dual to each black hole. A rotationally invariant central charge, which is proportional to the total angular momentum, is used to discuss the supersymmetric Breckenridge-Myers-Peet-Vafa black hole limits.
