[HTML][HTML] Three-dimensional quantum black holes: a primer

E Panella, JF Pedraza, A Svesko - Universe, 2024 - mdpi.com
We review constructions of three-dimensional 'quantum'black holes. Such spacetimes arise
via holographic braneworlds and are exact solutions to an induced higher-derivative theory …

Thermodynamic properties of modified gravity theories

K Bamba - International Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern …, 2016 - World Scientific
We review thermodynamic properties of modified gravity theories, such as F (R) gravity and f
(T) gravity, where R is the scalar curvature and T is the torsion scalar in teleparallelism. In …

Violation of the first law of black hole thermodynamics in f (T) gravity

RX Miao, M Li, YG Miao - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle …, 2011 - iopscience.iop.org
We prove that, in general, the first law of black hole thermodynamics, δQ= TδS, is violated in
f (T) gravity. As a result, it is possible that there exists entropy production, which implies that …

Gravitation from optimized computation: Einstein and beyond

R Carrasco, JF Pedraza, A Svesko… - Journal of High Energy …, 2023 - Springer
A bstract A new principle in quantum gravity, dubbed spacetime complexity, states that
gravitational physics emerges from spacetime seeking to optimize the computational cost of …

Kalb-Ramond field and gravitational parity violation

T Manton, S Alexander - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
Gravitational wave physics can probe theories that extend beyond general relativity.
Motivated by recent attention on the Kalb-Ramond field as a dark matter candidate, in this …

Generalized entropy implies varying-G: Horizon area dependent field equations and black hole-cosmology coupling

H Lü, S Di Gennaro, YC Ong - Annals of Physics, 2025 - Elsevier
Abstract When the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy is modified, ambiguity often arises
concerning whether the Hawking temperature or the thermodynamic mass should be …

Entanglement equilibrium for higher order gravity

P Bueno, VS Min, AJ Speranza, MR Visser - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
We show that the linearized higher derivative gravitational field equations are equivalent to
an equilibrium condition on the entanglement entropy of small spherical regions in vacuum …

Thermodynamics in f (R) gravity in the Palatini formalism

K Bamba, CQ Geng - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle …, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate thermodynamics of the apparent horizon inf (R) gravity in the Palatini
formalism with non-equilibrium and equilibrium descriptions. We demonstrate that it is more …

Gravitation and vacuum entanglement entropy

T Jacobson - International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2012 - World Scientific
The vacuum of quantum fields contains correlated fluctuations. When restricted to one side
of a surface these have a huge entropy of entanglement that scales with the surface area. If …

Universality of the volume bound in slow-roll eternal inflation

S Dubovsky, L Senatore, G Villadoro - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2012 - Springer
A bstract It has recently been shown that in single field slow-roll inflation the total volume
cannot grow by a factor larger than\({e^{{S_ {dS}}/2}}\) without becoming infinite. The bound …
