Note on thermodynamics method of black hole/CFT correspondence

In the paper we further refine the thermodynamics method of black hole/CFT correspondence. We show that one can derive the central charges of different holographic pictures directly from the entropy product S+S− if it is mass-independent, for a black hole in the Einstein gravity or the gravity without diffeomorphism anomaly. For a general black hole in the Einstein gravity that admits holographic descriptions, we show that the thermodynamics method and asymptotic symmetry group (ASG) analysis can always give consistent results in the extreme limit. Furthermore, we discuss the relation between black hole thermodynamics and the hidden conformal symmetry. We show that the condition T+A+ = T−A−, with A± being the outer and inner horizon areas, is the necessary, but not sufficient, condition for a black hole to have the hidden conformal symmetry. In particular, for the Einstein(-Maxwell) gravity T+A+ = T−A− is just the condition T+S+ = T−S−, with S± being the outer and inner horizon entropies, which is the condition for the entropy product S+S− being mass-dependent. When there exists the hidden conformal symmetry in the low-frequency scattering off the generic non-extremal black hole, it always leads to the same temperatures of dual CFT as the ones got from the thermodynamics method.
