Asymptotic structure near event horizon and Cardy-Verlinde formula for general asymptotically flat stationary black hole

The asymptotically anti-de Sitter structure near event horizon of general asymptotically flat stationary black hole is found, and the Cardy-Verlinde formula is generalized to the asymptotically flat black holes in the Einstein-Maxwell theory and low-energy effective field theory describing string. The result that the entropy of conformal field theory (CFT) agrees precisely with black-hole entropy provides a CFT interpretation of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of the asymptotically flat stationary black holes.
