Abstract
In this paper we reformulate the dilaton-gravity theory of Callan et a l. as a new effective conformal field theory which turns out to be a g eneralization of the so-called SL2-conformal affine Toda (CAT) theory studied some time ago by Babelon and Bonora. We quantize this model, t hus keeping in account the dilaton-gravity quantum effects. We then im plement a Renormalization Group analysis to study the black hole therm odynamics and the final state of the Hawking evaporation.
