The origin of black hole entropy
نویسنده
چکیده
In this thesis properties and the origin of black hole entropy are investigated from various points of view. First, laws of black hole thermodynamics are reviewed. In particular, the first and generalized second laws are investigated in detail. It is in these laws that the black hole entropy plays key roles. Next, three candidates for the origin of the black hole entropy are analyzed: the D-brane statistical-mechanics, the brick wall model, and the entanglement thermodynamics. Finally, discussions are given on semiclassical consistencies of the brick wall model and the entanglement thermodynamics and on the information loss problem.

The phase transition of corrected black hole with f(R) gravity
In this letter, we consider static black hole in f(R) gravity.We take advantage from corrected entropy and temperature and investigate such black hole. Finally, we study the $ P - V $ critically and phase transition of corrected black hole with respect to entropy and temperature. Here also, we obtain the heat capacity for the static black hole in $ f(R) $ gravity. This calculation help us...

Entanglement entropy is often speculated as a strong candidate for the origin of the black-hole entropy. To judge whether this speculation is true or not, it is effective to investigate the whole structure of thermodynamics obtained from the entanglement entropy, rather than just to examine the apparent structure of the entropy alone or to compare it with that of the black hole entropy. It is b...
متن کاملAlberta-Thy 10-97 Plenty of Nothing: Black Hole Entropy in Induced Gravity
We demonstrate how Sakharov’s idea of induced gravity allows one to explain the statistical-mechanical origin of the entropy of a black hole. According to this idea, gravity becomes dynamical as the result of quantum effects in the system of heavy constituents of the underlying theory. The black hole entropy is related to the properties of the vacuum in the induced gravity in the presence of th...
