One-loop Renormalization of Black Hole Entropy Due to Non-minimally Coupled Matter

arXiv:hep-th/9504022 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.52.7046

Abstract

The quantum entanglement entropy of an eternal black hole is studied. We argue that the relevant Euclidean path integral is taken over fields defined on -fold covering of the black hole instanton. The statement that divergences of the entropy are renormalized by renormalization of gravitational couplings in the effective action is proved for non-minimally coupled scalar matter. The relationship of entanglement and thermodynamical entropies is discussed.
