Black hole thermodynamics is around the corner
Gerui Chen, Wei Guo, Xin Lan +2
We propose to work on the Euclidean black hole solution with a corner rather than with the prevalent conical singularity. As a result, we find that the Wald formula for black hole…
Quadratic curvature corrections to 5-dimensional Kerr-AdS black hole thermodynamics by background subtraction method
Gerui Chen, Xiyao Guo, Xin Lan +2
We justify the applicability of the background subtraction method to both Einstein's gravity and its higher derivative corrections in 5-dimensional asymptotically AdS spacetimes, w…
Higher derivative corrections to Kerr-AdS black hole thermodynamics
Wei Guo, Xiyao Guo, Xin Lan +2
Instead of the much more involved covariant counterterm method, we apply the well justified background subtraction method to calculate the first order corrections to Kerr-AdS black…
Background subtraction method is not only much simpler, but also as applicable as covariant counterterm method
Wei Guo, Xiyao Guo, Xin Lan +2
As the criterion for the applicability of the background subtraction method, not only the finiteness condition of the resulting Hamiltonian but also the condition for the validity…
