We construct higher-dimensional and exact black holes in Einstein-Maxwell-scalar theory. The strategy we adopted is to extend the known, static and spherically symmetric black holes in the Einstein-Maxwell dilaton gravity and Einstein-Maxwell-scalar theory. Then we investigate the black hole thermodynamics. Concretely, the generalized Smarr formula and the first law of thermodynamics are derived.

In this paper we reformulate the dilaton-gravity theory of Callan et al. as a new effective conformal field theory which turns out to be a generalization of the so-called SL 2-conformal affine Toda (CAT) theory studied some time ago by Babelon and Bonora. We quantize this model, thus keeping in account the dilaton-gravity quantum effects. We then implement a Renormalization Group analysis to study the black hole thermodynamics and the final state of the Hawking evaporation.

The extended phase-space thermodynamics and heat engines for static spherically symmetric black hole solutions of four-dimensional conformal gravity are studied in detail. It is argued that the equation of states (EOS) for such black holes is always branched, any continuous thermodynamical process cannot drive the system from one branch of the EOS into another branch. Meanwhile, the thermodynamical volume is bounded from above, making the black holes always super-entropic in one branch and may also be super-entropic in another branch in certain range of the temperature. The Carnot and Stirling heat engines associated to such black holes are shown to be distinct from each other. For rectangular heat engines, the efficiency always approaches zero when the rectangle becomes extremely narrow, and given the highest and lowest working temperatures fixed, there is always a maximum for the efficiency of such engines.

We derive a new analytic solution of (n + 1)-dimensional (n ≥ 4) Brans–Dicke–Maxwell theory in the presence of a potential for the scalar field, by applying a conformal transformation to the dilaton gravity theory. Such solutions describe topological charged black holes with unusual asymptotics. We obtain the conserved and thermodynamic quantities through the use of the Euclidean action method. We also study the thermodynamics of the solutions and verify that the conserved and thermodynamic quantities of the solutions satisfy the first law of black hole thermodynamics.

We discuss some of the issues relating to information loss and black hole thermodynamics in the light of recent work on local black hole horizons. Understood in terms of pure states evolving into mixed states, the possibility of information loss in black holes is closely related to the global causal structure of space–time, as is the existence of event horizons. However, black holes need not be defined by event horizons, and in fact we argue that in order to have a fully unitary evolution for black holes, they should be defined in terms of something else, such as a trapping horizon. The Misner–Sharp mass in spherical symmetry shows very simply how trapping horizons can give rise to black hole thermodynamics, Hawking radiation and singularities. We show how the Misner–Sharp mass can also be used to give insights into the process of collapse and evaporation of locally defined black holes.

AbstractIn this work we extend the first law of thermodynamics to spherically symmetric black hole solutions in the context of scale-dependent gravity. After deriving generalized expressions for both the entropy and energy due to the spatial variation of the gravitational constant we analize, by pointing out some relations between scale-dependent and f(R) theories, whether or not the former can be described using equilibrium thermodynamics.

The first law of thermodynamics at black hole horizons is known to be obtainable from the gravitational field equations. A recent study claims that the contributions at inner horizons should be considered in order to give the conventional first law of black hole thermodynamics. Following this method, we revisit the thermodynamic aspects of field equations in the Lovelock gravity and f(R) gravity by focusing on two typical classes of charged black holes in the two theories.

For the Schwarzschild black hole, the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy is proportional to the area of the event horizon. For the black holes with two horizons, the thermodynamics is not very clear, since the role of the inner horizons is not well established. Here we calculate the entropy of the Reissner–Nordström black hole and of the Kerr black hole, which have two horizons. For the spherically symmetric Reissner–Nordström black hole, we used several different approaches. All of them give the same result for the entropy and for the corresponding temperature of the thermal Hawking radiation. The entropy is not determined by the area of the outer horizon, and it is not equal to the sum of the entropies of two horizons. It is determined by the correlations between the two horizons, due to which the total entropy of the black hole and the temperature of Hawking radiation depend only on mass M of the black hole and do not depend on the black hole charge Q. For the Kerr and Kerr–Newman black holes, it is shown that their entropy has the similar property: it depends only on mass M of the black hole and does not depend on the angular momentum J and charge Q.

On the basis of the first law of black hole thermodynamics, we propose the concept of effective temperature of de Sitter (dS) black holes and conjecture that the effective temperature should be the temperature of the dS black holes when the Hawking radiation temperatures of the black hole horizon and the cosmological horizon are equal. Choosing different independent variables, we can find a differential equation satisfied by the entropy of the dS black hole. It is shown that the differential equation of entropy is independent of the choice of independent variables. From the differential equation, we get the entropy of dS black hole and other effective thermodynamic quantities. We also discuss the influence of several parameters on the effective thermodynamic quantities.

Lovelock gravity is arguably the most natural higher curvature, higher dimensional generalization of Einstein's theory of gravity. As shown in a previous paper (Kunstatter et al. arXiv:1210.1566; Kunstatter et al. Classical Quantum Gravity, 29, 092001 (2012) (Fast Track); arXiv:1201.4904.), the Hamiltonian for spherically symmetric Lovelock gravity is as simple as that of general relativity when written in terms of geometrodynamical variables (i.e., the areal radius and mass function). This result paves the way to the study of critical phenomena in black hole formation and the quantum mechanics of Lovelock black holes.

Abstract The relation between the black hole shadow and the black hole thermodynamics is investigated. We find that the phase structure can be reflected by the shadow radius for the spherically symmetric black hole. We also find that the shadow size gives correct information but the distortion of the shadow gives wrong information of the phase structure for the axially symmetric black hole.
