Outline• Coinciding horizon limit of Schwarzschild-de Sitter: finite
4-volume between horizons in extremal limit• Coordinate patches and Killing horizons in limit• Subtleties of spacetime limits (Geroch, 1969)• A new approach: mapping geometrical data from bulk to
near horizon geometry (horizons, Killing vectors, etc.)• Consequence: near horizon geometries are tangent
spacetimes, valid in an open coordinate neighbourhood• Further implications (extremal BH entropy, AdS/CFT)

Ginsparg-Perry LimitGrinding through the calculation, one ends up with a patch of dS2 × S2
Things to notice:1. There are two non-degenerate horizons2. The static patch between the original horizons remains

Ginsparg-Perry Limit
ü Each non-degenerate horizon in SdS maps to a non-degenerate horizon in Nariai.
ü The static patch in non-extremal SdS maps to static patch in Nariai.
ü Extremal SdS is the same as Nariai.
Standard story sounds airtight, right?

Ginsparg-Perry Limit problem
There is no meaningful way in which these horizons are identified because the KV generating the horizons in SdS does not map smoothly to the KV generating the horizons in Nariai.This is a subtle point that has obscured what is really going on!

Another Approach to NHGs1. Take the canonical extremal limit:
2. Expand the metric around the degenerate horizon.
3. Keep lowest order terms only.
ds2 =V (τ )dσ 2 −dτ 2
V (τ )+τ 2 dθ 2 + sin2θdφ 2( )
τ = r0 + !τ
9M 2Λ =1
V (τ ) = τ + 2r03τ

Conclusions• Need to be very careful about interpretation of how
geometrical objects transform when taking spacetimelimits (dates back to Geroch in 1969)
• The interpretation of 4-volume between degenerating horizons remaining finite in the extremal limit is called into question. Killing horizons not preserved.
• Nariai is NOT the same as extremal SdS; it is the NHG of extremal SdS and has zero temperature wrt the “correct” Killing vector.

Further Implications• Extremal black hole entropy: these results suggest entropy
calculated via global properties of the NHG are measuring “something else.”
• Extend analysis to degenerate BH horizons (work in progress): the “infinite throat” only maps to an open neighbourhood around a degenerate null hypersurface in the NHG.
• AdS/CFT: any calculation relying on global properties of NHG is suspect when making a connection to the full spacetime.
