We study thermodynamics of black holes in the deformed Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity with coupling constant $\lambda$. For $\lambda=1$, the black hole behaves the Reissner-Norstr\"om black hole. Hence, this is different from the Schwarzschild…

In blackhole physics, the second law of thermodynamics is generally valid whether the blackhole is a static or a non-static one. Considering the universe as a thermodynamical system the second law of blackhole dynamics extends to the…
We investigate thermodynamics of static and spherically symmetric black holes (BHs) in the Horndeski theories. Because of the presence of the higher-derivative interactions and the nonminimal derivative couplings of the scalar field, the…
We examine counterparts of the Reissner-Nordstrom-anti-de Sitter black hole spacetimes in which the two-sphere has been replaced by a surface Sigma of constant negative or zero curvature. When horizons exist, the spacetimes are black holes…
As in thermodynamics, the celebrated first law of black hole mechanics relates infinitesimal changes in the properties of nearby equilibrium states of black holes (without reference to any physical process that causes the transition). Using…

We develop a constraint-free formulation that generalizes Padmanabhan's method for deriving the first law of black hole thermodynamics directly from the Einstein field equations. In previous studies, even for multi-horizon black holes,…
In the present paper, we study the thermodynamics behavior of the field equations for the generalized f(T) gravity with an arbitrary coupling between matter and the torsion scalar. In this regard, we explore the verification of the first…
We find topological (charged) black holes whose horizon has an arbitrary constant scalar curvature $2k$ in Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz theory. Without loss of generality, one may take $k=1,0$ and -1. The black hole solution is asymptotically AdS…
In classical general relativity described by Einstein-Hilbert gravity, black holes behave as thermodynamic objects. In particular, the laws of black hole mechanics can be interpreted as laws of thermodynamics. The first law of black hole…
