# Kerr/CFT correspondence
The (near-)extremal Kerr black hole has remarkable symmetries associated with it. Just like how the asymptotic symmetry of AdS related to the conformal symmetry of a theory living on its boundary, the symmetry of Kerr suggests a duality between the Kerr geometry and some CFT.
