Universal canonical black hole entropy

Nonrotating black holes in three and four dimensions are shown to possess a canonical entropy obeying the Bekenstein-Hawking area law together with a leading correction (for large horizon areas) given by the logarithm of the area with a universal finite negative coefficient, provided one assumes that the quantum black hole mass spectrum has a power-law relation with the quantum area spectrum found in nonperturbative canonical quantum general relativity. The thermal instability associated with asymptotically flat black holes appears in the appropriate domain for the index characterizing this power-law relation, where the canonical entropy (free energy) is seen to turn complex.     

Entropy corrections to five-dimensional black holes and de Sitter spaces

It is shown that non-rotating black holes in three or four dimensions possess a canonical entropy. Recently study indicated that there were logarithmic corrections to Bekenstein–Hawking entropy in area with a uncertain coefficient which depends on specific models. In this paper, the thermal fluctuations on Bekenstein–Hawking entropy in five-dimensional topological AdS (TAds)-black holes and topological de Sitter (Tds) spaces will be considered based on a uniformly spaced area spectrum approach.     

Entropy Corrections for a Charged Black Hole of String Theory

We study the entropy of the Gibbons-Maeda-Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger (GMGHS) charged black hole, originated from the effective action thatemerges in the low-energy of string theory, beyond semiclassical approximations. Applying the properties of exact differentials for three variables to the first law thermodynamics we derive the quantum correctionsto the entropy of the black hole. The leading (logarithmic) and non leading corrections to the area law are obtained.     

Quantum corrections to the spectroscopy of a BTZ black hole via periodicity

Quantum corrections to the area spectrum and the entropy spectrum of a BTZ black hole are calculated by equaling the motion period of an outgoing wave coming from the quantum corrections of the semiclassical action to the period of gravitational system with respect to the Euclidean time. We find that the area spectrum and the entropy spectrum are independent of the properties of particles. Furthermore, in the presence of higher-order quantum corrections, the area spectrum is found to be corrected by inverse area terms while the entropy spectrum is found to have a universal form, $\varDelta S_{BH}=2\pi $ . Both results show that the entropy spectrum is independent of not only the BTZ black hole parameters but also the higher-order quantum corrections, which implies that the entropy spectrum is more natural than the area spectrum in quantum gravity theory.     

Equivalence of ensembles in quantum lattice systems: States

The general analysis of the equivalence of ensembles in quantum lattice systems, which was undertaken in paper I of this series, is continued.The properties of equilibrium states are considered in a variational sense. It is then shown that there exists a canonical as well as a microcanonical variational formulation of equilibrium both of which are equivalent to the grandcanonical formulation.Equilibrium states are constructed both in the canonical and in the microcanonical formalism by means of suitable limiting procedures.It is shown, in particular, that the invariant equilibrium states for a given energy and density are those for which the maximum of the mean entropy is reached. The mean entropy thus obtained coincides with the microcanonical entropy.     

Quantum microcanonical entropy of a pair of observables

The quantum analogue of the classical theory of the joint microcanonical entropy of a pair of observables is investigated for a system of a large number of identical non-interacting subsystems. It is shown that the quantum joint entropy coincides with the classical joint entropy of an appropriately chosen auxiliary classical system, and known results for classical systems are applied to prove the equivalence of the quantum microcanonical and quantum canonical ensembles.     

Corrected entropy of BTZ black hole in tunneling approach

We investigate further the recent analysis [R. Banerjee, B.R. Majhi, JHEP 0806 (2008) 095, arXiv: 0805.2220], based on a Hamilton–Jacobi type approach, to compute the temperature and entropy of black holes beyond the semiclassical approximation. It is shown how nonspherically symmetric geometries are inducted in the general formalism by explicitly considering the BTZ black hole. The leading (logarithmic) and nonleading corrections to the area law are obtained.     

The Generalized Canonical Ensemble and Its Universal Equivalence with the Microcanonical Ensemble

This paper shows for a general class of statistical mechanical models that when the microcanonical and canonical ensembles are nonequivalent on a subset of values of the energy, there often exists a generalized canonical ensemble that satisfies a strong form of equivalence with the microcanonical ensemble that we call universal equivalence. The generalized canonical ensemble that we consider is obtained from the standard canonical ensemble by adding an exponential factor involving a continuous function g of the Hamiltonian. For example, if the microcanonical entropy is C², then universal equivalence of ensembles holds with g taken from a class of quadratic functions, giving rise to a generalized canonical ensemble known in the literature as the Gaussian ensemble. This use of functions g to obtain ensemble equivalence is a counterpart to the use of penalty functions and augmented Lagrangians in global optimization. linebreak Generalizing the paper by Ellis et al. [J. Stat. Phys. 101:999–1064 (2000)], we analyze the equivalence of the microcanonical and generalized canonical ensembles both at the level of equilibrium macrostates and at the thermodynamic level. A neat but not quite precise statement of one of our main results is that the microcanonical and generalized canonical ensembles are equivalent at the level of equilibrium macrostates if and only if they are equivalent at the thermodynamic level, which is the case if and only if the generalized microcanonical entropy s–g is concave. This generalizes the work of Ellis et al., who basically proved that the microcanonical and canonical ensembles are equivalent at the level of equilibrium macrostates if and only if they are equivalent at the thermodynamic level, which is the case if and only if the microcanonical entropy s is concave.     

Corrections to Hawking-like radiation for a Friedmann–Robertson–Walker universe

Recently, a Hamilton–Jacobi method beyond the semiclassical approximation in black hole physics was developed by Banerjee and Majhi. We generalize their analysis of black holes to the case of a Friedmann–Robertson–Walker (FRW) universe. It is shown that all the higher order quantum corrections in the single particle action are proportional to the usual semiclassical contribution. The corrections to the Hawking-like temperature and entropy of the apparent horizon for the FRW universe are also obtained. In the corrected entropy, the area law involves a logarithmic area correction together with the standard term with the inverse power of the area.     

Entropic Corrections to Coulomb’s Law

Two well-known quantum corrections to the area law have been introduced in the literatures, namely, logarithmic and power-law corrections. Logarithmic corrections, arises from loop quantum gravity due to thermal equilibrium fluctuations and quantum fluctuations, while, power-law correction appears in dealing with the entanglement of quantum fields in and out the horizon. Inspired by Verlinde’s argument on the entropic force, and assuming the quantum corrected relation for the entropy, we propose the entropic origin for the Coulomb’s law in this note. Also we investigate the Uehling potential as a radiative correction to Coulomb potential in 1-loop order and show that for some value of distance the entropic corrections of the Coulomb’s law is compatible with the vacuum-polarization correction in QED. So, we derive modified Coulomb’s law as well as the entropy corrected Poisson’s equation which governing the evolution of the scalar potential ϕ. Our study further supports the unification of gravity and electromagnetic interactions based on the holographic principle.     

Entropy of the Kerr–Sen black hole

We study the entropy of Kerr–Sen black hole of heterotic string theory beyond semiclassical approximations. Applying the properties of exact differentials for three variables to the first law of thermodynamics, we derive the corrections to the entropy of the black hole. The leading (logarithmic) and non-leading corrections to the area law are obtained.     

Canonical Entropy of Black Hole in the Generalized Uncertainty Principle

Recently, there has been much attention devoted to resolving the quantum corrections to the Bekenstein-Hawking black hole entropy. In particular, many researchers have expressed a vested interest in the coefficient of the logarithmic term of the black hole entropy correction term. In this paper, based on the correction to black hole thermodynamic quantity due to the generalized uncertainty principle, we calculate the partition function by energy spectrum obtained using tunneling effect. Furthermore we derive the black hole entropy. In the expression, we not only consider the generalized uncertainty principle but also consider the departure of black hole radiation spectrum from pure thermal spectrum. According to criterion law of thermodynamic systems phase transition, we discuss the phase transition of AdS black hole and derive that the phase transition of AdS black hole is a secondary one.     

Quantum Corrections for a Black Hole in an Asymptotically Safe Gravity with Higher Derivatives

By using the quantum tunneling approach over semiclassical approximations, we study the quantum corrections to the Hawking temperature, entropy and Bekenstein-Hawking entropy-area relation for a black hole in an asymptotically safe gravity with higher derivatives. The leading and non leading corrections to the area law are obtained.     

Extended gaussian ensemble solution and tricritical points of a system with long-range interactions

The gaussian ensemble and its extended version theoretically play the important role of interpolating ensembles between the microcanonical and the canonical ensembles. Here, the thermodynamic properties yielded by the extended gaussian ensemble (EGE) for the Blume-Capel (BC) model with infinite-range interactions are analyzed. This model presents different predictions for the first-order phase transition line according to the microcanonical and canonical ensembles. From the EGE approach, we explicitly work out the analytical microcanonical solution. Moreover, the general EGE solution allows one to illustrate in details how the stable microcanonical states are continuously recovered as the gaussian parameter γ is increased. We found out that it is not necessary to take the theoretically expected limit γ → ∞ to recover the microcanonical states in the region between the canonical and microcanonical tricritical points of the phase diagram. By analyzing the entropy as a function of the magnetization we realize the existence of unaccessible magnetic states as the energy is lowered, leading to a breaking of ergodicity.     

Valence bond entanglement entropy

We introduce for SU(2) quantum spin systems the valence bond entanglement entropy as a counting of valence bond spin singlets shared by two subsystems. For a large class of antiferromagnetic systems, it can be calculated in all dimensions with quantum Monte Carlo simulations in the valence bond basis. We show numerically that this quantity displays all features of the von Neumann entanglement entropy for several one-dimensional systems. For two-dimensional Heisenberg models, we find a strict area law for a valence bond solid state and multiplicative logarithmic corrections for the Néel phase.     

Thermodynamics of Black Holes and the Symmetric Generalized Uncertainty Principle

In this paper, we have investigated the thermodynamics of Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordström black holes using the symmetric generalised uncertainty principle which contains correction terms involving momentum and position uncertainty. The mass-temperature relationship and the heat capacity for these black holes have been computed using which the critical and remnant masses have been obtained. The entropy is found to satisfy the area law upto leading order logarithmic corrections and corrections of the form A² (which is a new finding in this paper) from the symmetric generalised uncertainty principle.     

Bi-partite Entanglement Entropy in Massive QFT with a Boundary: the Ising Model

In this paper we give an exact infinite-series expression for the bi-partite entanglement entropy of the quantum Ising model in the ordered regime, both with a boundary magnetic field and in infinite volume. This generalizes and extends previous results involving the present authors for the bi-partite entanglement entropy of integrable quantum field theories, which exploited the generalization of the form factor program to branch-point twist fields. In the boundary case, we isolate in a universal way the part of the entanglement entropy which is related to the boundary entropy introduced by Affleck and Ludwig, and explain how this relation should hold in more general QFT models. We provide several consistency checks for the validity of our form factor results, notably, the identification of the leading ultraviolet behaviour both of the entanglement entropy and of the two-point function of twist fields in the bulk theory, to a great degree of precision by including up to 500 form factor contributions.     

Logarithmic corrections to $${\mathcal{N} = 2}$$ black hole entropy: an infrared window into the microstates

Logarithmic corrections to the extremal black hole entropy can be computed purely in terms of the low energy data—the spectrum of massless fields and their interaction. The demand of reproducing these corrections provides a strong constraint on any microscopic theory of quantum gravity that attempts to explain the black hole entropy. Using quantum entropy function formalism we compute logarithmic corrections to the entropy of half BPS black holes in N=2{{\mathcal N}=2} supersymmetric string theories. Our results allow us to test various proposals for the measure in the OSV formula, and we find agreement with the measure proposed by Denef and Moore if we assume their result to be valid at weak topological string coupling. Our analysis also gives the logarithmic corrections to the entropy of extremal Reissner–Nordstrom black holes in ordinary Einstein–Maxwell theory.     

Finite-temperature critical behavior of mutual information

We study mutual information for Renyi entropy of arbitrary index n, in interacting quantum systems at finite-temperature critical points, using high-temperature expansion, quantum Monte Carlo simulations and scaling theory. We find that, for n>1, the critical behavior is manifest at two temperatures T(c) and nT(c). For the XXZ model with Ising anisotropy, the coefficient of the area law has a t lnt singularity, whereas the subleading correction from corners has a logarithmic divergence, with a coefficient related to the exact results of Cardy and Peschel.
