Abstract We study the behavior of black hole singularities across the Hawking-Page phase transitions, uncovering possible connections between the physics inside and outside the horizon. We focus on the case of spacelike singularities in Einstein-scalar theory which are of the Kasner form. We find that the Kasner exponents are continuous and non-differentiable during the second order phase transitions, while discontinuous in the first order phase transitions. We give some arguments on the universality of this behavior. We also discuss possible observables in the dual field theory which encode the Kasner exponents.

On the example of first-order phase transitions in orthoferrites under the influence of an external magnetic field is shown the effectiveness of the application of the Landau theory of phase transitions, commonly used in second-order phase transitions. This is especially important when used Hamiltonian is a function of many variables.
