The information loss paradox is widely regarded as one of the biggest open problems in theoretical physics. Several classical and quantum features must be present to enable its formulation. First, an event horizon is needed to justify the…

Black holes behave as thermodynamic systems, and a central task of any quantum theory of gravity is to explain these thermal properties. A statistical mechanical description of black hole entropy once seemed remote, but today we suffer an…

We have investigated the thermodynamical properties of the Universe with dark energy. Adopting the usual assumption in deriving the constant co-moving entropy density that the physical volume and the temperature are independent, we observed…

The double Hawking temperature $T=2T_H$ appears in some approaches to the Hawking radiation, when the radiation is considered in terms of the quantum tunneling. We consider the origin of such temperature for the black hole horizon and also…

We propose a simple procedure for evaluating the main thermodynamical attributes of a Schwarzschild's black hole: Bekenstein-Hawking entropy, Hawking's temperature and Bekenstein's quantization of the surface area. We make use of the…

The thermodynamic properties of dark energy-dominated universe in the presence of a black hole are investigated in the general case of a varying equation-of-state-parameter $w(a)$. We show that all the thermodynamics quantities are regular…

The model is constructed, some features of which comes from quantum thin dust shells and is, in fact, an extension of the "no hair" property of classical black hole on a quantum level. It appears that the proposed classical analog of…
