The infinite symmetries of event horizons: the case of black holes embedded in strong magnetic fields

Resumen

In this talk, I will review the recently discovered infinite-dimensional symmetries that emerge in the near horizon region of black hole horizons. I will explain how the conserved charges associated with those symmetries carry information of the black hole, and, in particular, about its thermodynamic properties. I will focus on the case of magnetized black holes; namely, black holes that are embedded in strong magnetic fields.
