AbstractWe study the evolution of the renormalized volume functional for even-dimensional asymptotically Poincaré-Einstein metrics (M, g) under normalized Ricci flow. In particular, we prove thatwhere S(g(t)) is the scalar curvature for the evolving metric g(t). This implies that if S +n(n − 1) ≥ 0 at t = 0, then RenV(Mn , g(t)) decreases monotonically. For odd-dimensional asymptotically Poincaré-Einstein metrics with vanishing obstruction tensor,we find that the conformal anomaly for these metrics is constant along the flow. We apply our results to the Hawking-Page phase transition in black hole thermodynamics.We compute renormalized volumes for the Einstein 4-metrics sharing the conformal infinity of an AdS-Schwarzschild black hole. We compare these to the free energies relative to thermal hyperbolic space, as originally computed by Hawking and Page using a different regularization technique, and find that they are equal.

We investigate a microscopic black hole in the case of modified generalized uncertainty principle with a minimal uncertainty in position as well as in momentum. We calculate thermodynamical functions of a Schwarzschild black hole such as temperature, entropy and heat capacity. It is shown that the incorporation of minimal uncertainty in momentum leads to minimal temperature of a black hole. Minimal temperature gives rise to appearance of a phase transition. Emission rate equation and black hole's evaporation time are also obtained.

We study the phases of a Schwarzschild black hole in the Anti-deSitter background geometry. Exploiting fluid/gravity duality, we construct the Maxwell equal area isotherm   in the temperature-entropy plane, in order to eliminate negative heat capacity BHs. The construction we present here is reminiscent of the isobar cut in the pressure-volume plane which eliminates unphysical part of the Van der Walls curves below the critical temperature. Our construction also modifies the Hawking-Page phase transition. Stable BHs are formed at the temperature , while pure radiation persists for . turns out to be below the standard Hawking-Page temperature and there are no unstable BHs as in the usual scenario. Also, we show that, in order to reproduce the correct BH entropy , one has to write a black hole equation of state, that is, , in terms of the geometrical volume .

We investigate the thermodynamics and phase transition for Kiselev black hole and dilaton black hole. Specifically we consider Reissner-Nordström black hole surrounded by radiation and dust and Schwarzschild black hole surrounded by quintessence, as special cases of Kiselev solution. We have calculated the products relating the surface gravities, surface temperatures, Komar energies, areas, entropies, horizon radii, and the irreducible masses at the Cauchy and the event horizons. It is observed that the product of surface gravities, product of surface temperature, and product of Komar energies at the horizons are not universal quantities for the Kiselev solutions while products of areas and entropies at both the horizons are independent of mass of the above-mentioned black holes (except for Schwarzschild black hole surrounded by quintessence). For charged dilaton black hole, all the products vanish. The first law of thermodynamics is also verified for Kiselev solutions. Heat capacities are calculated and phase transitions are observed, under certain conditions.

We investigate the behavior of solutions of the normalized Ricci flow under surgeries of four-manifolds along circles by using Seiberg–Witten invariants. As a by-product, we prove that any pair (α, β) of integers satisfying α + β ≡ 0 (mod 2) can be realized as the Euler characteristic χ and signature τ of infinitely many closed smooth 4-manifolds with negative Perelman's [Formula: see text] invariants and on which there is no nonsingular solution to the normalized Ricci flows for any initial metric. In particular, this includes the existence theorem of non-Einstein 4-manifolds due to Sambusetti [An obstruction to the existence of Einstein metrics on 4-manifolds, Math. Ann.311 (1998) 533–547] as a special case.

We study the thermodynamics of AdS–Schwarzschild black hole in the presence of an external string cloud. We observe that, at any temperature, the black hole configuration is stable with nonzero entropy. We further notice that when the value of the curvature constant equals to one, if the string cloud density has less than a critical value, within a certain range of temperature three black holes configurations exist. One of these black holes is unstable and other two are stable. At a critical temperature, a transition between these two stable black holes takes place which leads us to conclude that the bound state of quark and antiquark pairs may not exist. By studying the corresponding dual gauge theory, we confirm the instability of the bound state of quark and antiquark pair in the dual gauge theory.

In this work, we construct a new kind of rainbow functions, which has generalized uncertainty principle parameter. Then, we investigate modified thermodynamic quantities and phase transition of rainbow Schwarzschild black hole by employing this new kind of rainbow functions. Our results demonstrate that the rainbow gravity and generalized uncertainty principle have a great effect on the picture of Hawking radiation. They prevent black holes from total evaporation and cause a remnant. In addition, after analyzing the modified local thermodynamic quantities, we find that the effect of rainbow gravity and the generalized uncertainty principle lead to one first-order phase transition, two second-order phase transitions and two Hawking–Page-type phase transitions in the thermodynamic system of rainbow Schwarzschild black hole.

A connection between the Hagedorn transition in string theory and the deconfinement transition in (nonsupersymmetric) Yang–Mills theory is made using the AdS/CFT correspondence. We modify the model of zero temperature QCD proposed by Witten by compactifying an additional space–time coordinate with supersymmetry breaking boundary conditions thus introducing a finite temperature in the boundary theory. There is a Hagedorn-like transition associated with winding modes around this coordinate, which signals a topology changing phase transition to a new AdS/Schwarzschild black hole where this coordinate is the time coordinate. In the boundary gauge theory time-like Wilson loops acquire an expectation value above this temperature.
