Abstract

An introduction to generalized thermodynamics of quantum black holes, in the one-loop approximation, is given. The material is aimed at graduate students. The topics include: quantum evaporation of black holes, Euclidean formulation of quantum theory on black hole backgrounds, the Hartle-Hawking-Israel state, generalized entropy of a quantum black hole and its relation to the entropy of entanglement.
