We show that the warp factor of a generic asymptotically flat black hole in five dimensions can be adjusted such that a conformal symmetry emerges. The construction preserves all near horizon properties of the black holes, such as the thermodynamic potentials and the entropy. We interpret the geometry with modified asymptotic behavior as the "bare" black hole, with the ambient flat space removed. Our warp factor subtraction generalizes hidden conformal symmetry and applies whether or not rotation is significant. We also find a relation to standard AdS/CFT correspondence by embedding the black holes in six dimensions. The asymptotic conformal symmetry guarantees a dual CFT description of the general rotating black holes.

  1. Generating Rotation in a Snap

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    An algebraic technique generates rotating black holes and multi-source solutions from static ones by transforming to AdS×S asymptotics, applying a rotating frame shift, and returning to flat asymptotics.
