Gravitational lensing in the strong field limit for Kar's metric

In this paper we calculate the strong field limit deflection angle for a light ray passing near a scalar charged spherically symmetric object, described by a metric which comes from the low-energy limit of heterotic string theory. Then, we compare the expansion parameters of our results with those obtained in the Einstein's canonical frame, obtained by a conformal transformation, and we show that, at least at first order, the results do not agree.

Area Spectrum of BTZ Black Holes from the Periodicity in Euclidean Time

The recent proposal of Maggiore that the periodicity of a black hole may be the origin of area quantization law is analyzed in the context of three dimensional black holes. We use the period of motion of an outgoing wave which is shown to be related to the vibrational frequency of the perturbed black hole, to quantize the horizon area of rotating and non-rotating BTZ black holes. It is shown that the equally spaced area spectrum takes the same form as the obtained in the literature using the quasinormal mode analysis for both metrics. Using this method, we do not need to use the small angular momentum assumption which is necessary in the quasinormal mode approach for the rotating black hole.

Geometric Thermodynamics of Kerr-AdS black hole with a Cosmological Constant as State Variable

The thermodynamics of the Kerr-AdS black hole is reformulated within the context of the formalism of geometrothermodynamics (GTD) and the cosmological constant is considered as a new thermodynamical parameter. We conclude that the mass of the black hole corresponds to the total enthalpy of this system. Choosing appropriately the metric in the equilibrium states manifold, we study the phase transitions as a divergence of the thermodynamical curvature scalar. This approach reproduces the Hawking-Page transition and shows that considering the cosmological constant as a thermodynamical parameter does not contribute with new phase transitions.

Entropy Spectrum of a Carged Black Hole of Heterotic String Theory via Adiabatic Invariance

Using adiabatic invariance and the Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization rule we investigate the entropy spectroscopy of a charged black hole of heterotic string theory. It is shown that the entropy spectrum is equally spaced identically to the Schwarzschild, Reissner-Nordström and Kerr black holes. Since the adiabatic invariance method does not use quasinormal mode analysis, there is no need to impose the small charge limit and no confusion on whether the real part or imaginary part is responsible for the entropy spectrum.

Area Spectrum of a Rotating Charged Black Hole Solution of Heterotic String Theory

The recent proposal of Maggiore that the periodicity of a black hole may be the origin of area quantization law is analyzed in the context of black holes in string theory. We use the period of motion of an outgoing wave, which is shown to be related to the vibrational frequency of the perturbed black hole, to quantize the horizon areas of a Sen black hole. It is shown that the equally spaced area spectrum takes the same form as the obtained by Zeng et. al. for Schwarzschild and Kerr black holes and the spacing is the same as that obtained through the quasinormal mode frequencies. In order to obtain this result, we do not need to use the small angular momentum assumption which is necessary in the quasinormal mode approach.

Geodesic Structure of the Noncommutative Schwarzschild Anti-de Sitter Black Hole I: Timelike Geodesics

By considering particles as smeared objects, we investigate the effects of space noncommutativity on the geodesic structure in Schwarzschild-AdS spacetime. By means of a detailed analysis of the corresponding effective potentials for particles, we find the possible motions which are allowed by the energy levels. Radial and non-radial trajectories are treated and the effects of space noncommutativity on the value of the precession of the perihelion are estimated. We show that the geodesic structure of this black hole presents new types of motion not allowed by the Schwarzschild spacetime.

A Rotating Charged Black Hole Solution in f(R) Gravity

In the context of f(R) theories of gravity, we address the problem of finding a rotating charged black hole solution in the case of constant curvature. The new metric is obtained by solving the field equations and we show that the behavior of it is typical of a rotating charged source. In addition, we analyze the thermodynamics of the new black hole. The results ensures that the thermodynamical properties in f(R) gravities are qualitatively similar to those of standard General Relativity.

Geometric Thermodynamics of Schwarzschild-AdS black hole with a Cosmological Constant as State Variable

The thermodynamics of the Schwarzschild-AdS black hole is reformulated within the context of the recently developed formalism of geometrothermodynamics (GTD). Different choices of the metric in the equilibrium states manifold are used in order to reproduce the Hawking-Page phase transition as a divergence of the thermodynamical curvature scalar. We show that the enthalpy and total energy representations of GTD does not reproduce the transition while the entropy rep- resentation gives the expected behavior.

Geometrothermodynamics of a Charged Black Hole of String Theory

The thermodynamics of the Gibbons-Maeda-Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger (GMGHS) charged black hole from string theory is reformulated within the context of the recently developed formalism of geometrothermodynamics. The geometry of the space of equilibrium states is curved, but we show that the thermodynamic curvature does not diverge when the black hole solution becomes a naked singularity. This provides a counterexample to the conventional notion that a thermodynamical curvature divergence signals the occurrence of a phase transition.

Three Dimensional Charged Black Hole Inspired by Noncommutative Geometry

We find a new charged black hole in three-dimensional anti-de Sitter space using an anisotropic perfect fluid inspired by the noncommutative black hole as the source of matter and a gaussian distribution of electric charge. We deduce the thermodynamical quantities of this black hole and compare them with those of a charged BTZ solution.

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 that emerges 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 corrections to the entropy of the black hole. The leading (logarithmic) and non leading corrections to the area law are obtained.

Applying the properties of exact differentials for three variables to the first law 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.

Entanglement Entropy for the Charged BTZ Black Hole

Using the AdS/CFT correspondence we calculate the explicit form of the entanglement entropy for the charged BTZ black hole. The leading term in the large temperature expansion of the entropy function for this black hole reproduces its Bekenstein-Hawking entropy and the subleading term, representing the first corrections due to quantum entanglement, behaves as a logarithm of the BH entropy.
