The Volume of 2D Black Holes

Abstract

It is shown that the definition for the volume of stationary black holes advocated in hep-th/0508108 readily generalizes to the case of dilaton gravity in D=2. The dilaton field is included as part of the measure. A feature observed in D=3 and 4 has been the impossibility to obtain infinite volume while retaining finite area without encountering some kind of pathology. It is demonstrated that this also holds in D=2. Consistency with spherically reduced gravity is shown. For the Witten black hole it is found that the area is proportional to the volume.
