The thermodynamical one-loop entropy $S^{TD}$ of a two-dimensional black hole in thermal equilibrium with the massless quantum gas is calculated. It is shown that $S^{TD}$ includes the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy, evaluated for the quantum…
To ask a question about a black hole in quantum gravity, one must restrict initial or boundary data to ensure that a black hole is actually present. For two-dimensional dilaton gravity, and probably a much wider class of theories as well,…

The Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of a black hole is proportional to its horizon area, hence in $D=2$ spacetime dimensions it is constant because the horizon degenerates into two points. This fact is consistent with Einstein's gravity becoming…
We present details of a new numerical code designed to study the formation and evaporation of 2-dimensional black holes within the CGHS model. We explain several elements of the scheme that are crucial to resolve the late-time behavior of…
When gas accretes onto a black hole, at a rate either much less than or much greater than the Eddington rate, it is likely to do so in an "adiabatic" or radiatively inefficient manner. Under fluid (as opposed to MHD) conditions, the disk…
We obtain a slowly rotating black hole solution in the scalar-tensor theory of gravity with nonminimal derivative coupling to the Einstein tensor. Properties of the obtained solution have been examined carefully. We also investigate the…
