Phase transitions in general gravity theories

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2015-08-26 v1 High Energy Physics - Theory

Abstract

Phase transitions between two competing vacua of a given theory are quite common in physics. We discuss how to construct the space-time solutions that allow the description of phase transitions between different branches (or asymptotics) of a given higher curvature gravity theory at finite temperature.
