We analyze the thermodynamical properties of brane-worlds, with a focus on the second model of Randall and Sundrum. We point out that during an inflationary phase on the brane, black holes will tend to be thermally nucleated in the bulk.…
We present the first examples of phase transitions in asymptotically flat black hole solutions. We analyze the thermodynamic properties of black holes in order $N\ge 3$ Lovelock gravity, with zero cosmological constant. We find a new type…
The stability of black holes and solitons in d-dimensional Anti-de Sitter space-time against scalar field condensation is discussed. The resulting solutions are "hairy" black holes and solitons, respectively. In particular, we will discuss…
We find a new black hole in three dimensional anti-de Sitter space by introducing an anisotropic perfect fluid inspired by the noncommutative black hole. This is a regular black hole with two horizons. We compare thermodynamics of this…
We investigate the stability of massless topological black holes in AdS_d when minimally coupled to a scalar field of negative mass-squared. In many cases such black holes are unstable even though the field is above the BF bound and the…
In both canonical ensemble and grand canonical ensemble, the thermodynamic stability and phase structure of Einstein-Euler-Heisenberg-AdS black hole are studied. We derive the Hawking temperature, Helmholtz free energy, Gibbs potential,…
We define and compute the (analogue) shear viscosity to entropy density ratio $\tilde\eta/s$ for the QFTs dual to spherical AdS black holes both in Einstein and Gauss-Bonnet gravity in five spacetime dimensions. Although in this case, owing…
Field equations of a classical, geometric, theory of gravity, augmented with some semiclassical considerations strongly suggest that the gravitational field representing a stationary black hole can be simply described with a few…
We analyze thermodynamic properties of the rotating regular black holes having mass ($M$), angular momentum ($a$), and a magnetic charge $(g)$, and encompass Kerr black hole ($g=0$). The mass $M$ has a minimum at the radius…
Regular black holes are generically unstable because of the classical phenomenon that goes by the name of "mass inflation" which destabilizes the inner horizon. In a recent article, [Phys.Rev.D~107~(2023)~2,~024005], it is argued that…
Using the Sharma-Mittal entropy, we study some properties of the Schwarzschild and Schwarzschild-de Sitter black holes. The results are compared with those obtained by attributing the Bekenstein entropy bound to the mentioned black holes.…
Regarding the volume as independent thermodynamic variable we point out that black hole horizons can hide positive heat capacity and specific heat. Such horizons are mechanically marginal, but thermally stable. In the absence of a canonical…
We discuss the stability and construct dynamical configurations describing the gravitational collapse of unstable neutron stars with realistic equations of state compatible with the recent LIGO-Virgo constraints. Unlike other works that…
The validity of our already proposed conjecture -- {\it horizon creates a local instability which acts as the source of the quantum temperature of black hole} -- is being tested here for Kerr black hole. Earlier this has been explicitly…
We first study the thermodynamics of Bardeen-AdS black hole by the $T$-$r_{h}$ diagram, where T is the Hawking temperature and $r_{h}$ is the radius of event horizon. The cut-off radius which is the minimal radius of the thermodynamical…
We study thermodynamics and geometrothermodynamics of a particular black hole configuration with a nonlinear source. We use the mass as fundamental equation, from which it follows that the curvature radius must be considered as a…
Flat electrical charged black holes in 5-dimensional anti-de Sitter space have been applied to the study of the phase diagram of quark matter via AdS/CFT correspondence. In such application it is argued that since the temperature of the…
We find new and compelling evidence for the meta-stability of SUSY-breaking states in holographic backgrounds whose consistency has been the source of ongoing disagreements in the literature. As a concrete example, we analyse anti-D3 branes…
The Einstein's equations with a negative cosmological constant admit solutions which are asymptotically anti-de Sitter space. Matter fields in anti-de Sitter space can be in stable equilibrium even if the potential energy is unbounded from…
In spherical symmetry, solutions of the semiclassical Einstein equations belong to one of two possible classes. Both classes contain solutions that -- depending on the dynamic behavior of the horizon -- describe evaporating physical black…
