Near an event horizon, the action of general relativity acquires a new asymptotic conformal symmetry. Using two-dimensional dilaton gravity as a test case, I show that this symmetry results in a chiral Virasoro algebra with a calculable…
We establish a one-to-one mapping between entanglement entropy, energy, and temperature (quantum entanglement mechanics) with black hole entropy, Komar energy, and Hawking temperature, respectively. We show this explicitly for 4-D…
An emergent gravity metric incorporating $k-$essence scalar fields $\phi$ having a Born-Infeld type lagrangian is mapped into a metric whose structure is similar to that of a blackhole of large mass $M$ that has swallowed a global monopole.…
Using a Hamiltonian approach, we introduce black hole entropy for Kerr-AdS spacetimes with torsion as the canonical charge on horizon. In spite of a completely different geometric setting with respect to GR, the resulting thermodynamic…
We investigate higher derivative corrections to the extremal Kerr black hole in the context of heterotic string theory with $\alpha'$ corrections and of a cubic-curvature extension of general relativity. By analyzing the near-horizon…
The conception of gravity as an emergent phenomenon, rooted in the thermodynamics of spacetime, offers a radical departure from its geometric description. This paper investigates the emergence of cosmic space by synthesizing two key…
A general ansatz for gravitational entropy can be provided using the criterion that, any patch of area which acts as a horizon for a suitably defined accelerated observer, must have an entropy proportional to its area. After providing a…
We consider a general, classical theory of gravity in $n$ dimensions, arising from a diffeomorphism invariant Lagrangian. In any such theory, to each vector field, $\xi^a$, on spacetime one can associate a local symmetry and, hence, a…
We investigate the black hole solution to (2+1)-dimensional gravity coupled to topological matter, with a vanishing cosmological constant. We calculate the total energy, angular momentum and entropy of the black hole in this model and…
The connection between black hole thermodynamics and chemistry is extended to the lower-dimensional regime by considering the rotating and charged BTZ metric in the $(2+1)$-D and a $(1+1)$-D limits of Einstein gravity. The Smarr relation is…
The basic equations of the thermodynamic system give the relationship between the internal energy, entropy and volume of two neighboring equilibrium states. By using the functional relationship between the state parameters in the basic…
Recently it has shown that Einstein's field equations can be rewritten into a form of the first law of thermodynamics both at event horizon of static spherically symmetric black holes and apparent horizon of Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW)…
To derive black hole thermodynamics in any quantum theory of gravity, one must introduce constraints that ensure that a black hole is actually present. For a large class of black holes, the imposition of such ``horizon constraints'' allows…
We investigate thermodynamic behaviors of the $D$-dimensional gravity coupled to a dynamical unit timelike vector, the aether, present two kinds of exact charged solutions and study the linearized wave spectrum of this theory. There is an…
We consider the most general dilaton gravity theory in 1+1 dimensions. By suitably parametrizing the metric and scalar field we find a simple expression that relates the energy of a generic solution to the magnitude of the corresponding…
We study the scalar-tensor theory of gravity profoundly in the action level as well as in the thermodynamic level. Contrary to the usual description in the literature about the equivalence in the two conformally connected frames, this paper…
We show that the concept of entropy and the dynamics of gravitation provide the linchpin in a unified scheme to understand the physics of black hole computers, space-time foam, dark energy, dark matter and the phenomenon of turbulence. We…
The Friedmann equation, augmented with an additional term that effectively takes on the role of dark energy, is demonstrated to be an exact solution to the recently proposed gravitational theory named "conformal Killing gravity." This…
