Abstract

The study of BTZ blackhole physics and the cosmological horizon of 3D de Sitter spaces are carried out in unified way using the connections to the Chern Simons theory on three manifolds with boundary. The relations to CFT on the boundary is exploited to construct exact partition functions and obtain logarithmic corrections to Bekenstein formula in the asymptotic regime. Comments are made on the dS/CFT correspondence frising from these studies.
