Logarithmic corrections to the entropy of near-extremal black holes in New Massive Gravity

We study the one-loop correction to the entropy of near-extremal black holes in three-dimensional massive gravity at the special point where the theory exhibits a unique maximally symmetric vacuum and non-constant curvature hairy black holes can achieve extremality even in the static case. Focusing on the near-horizon AdS$_2\times S^1$ geometry, we evaluate the contribution of boundary graviton modes that become exact zero modes in the extremal limit. We show that the resulting one-loop partition function generates logarithmic corrections to the semiclassical entropy, providing a new extension to higher-curvature gravity of what has been recently obtained for near-extremal black holes in General Relativity.

Higher-curvature gravity in AdS$_3$, holographic $c$-theorems and black hole microstates

We construct higher-derivative gravity theories in three dimensions that admit holographic $c$-theorems and exhibit a unique maximally symmetric vacuum, at arbitrary order $n$ in the curvature. We show that these theories exhibit special properties, the most salient ones being the decoupling of ghost modes around Anti-de Sitter (AdS) space, the enhancement of symmetries at linearized level, and the existence of a one-parameter generalization of the Bañados-Teitelboim-Zanelli (BTZ) black hole that, while being asymptotically AdS, is not of constant curvature but rather exhibits a curvature singularity. For such black holes, we provide a holographic derivation of their thermodynamics. This gives a microscopic picture of black hole thermodynamics for non-supersymmetric solutions, of non-constant curvature in higher-derivative theories of arbitrary order in the curvature.

Quantum backreactions in (A)dS3 massive gravity and logarithmic asymptotic behavior

We study the interplay between higher curvature terms and the backreaction of quantum fluctuations in 3-dimensional massive gravity in asymptotically (Anti-)de Sitter space. We focus on the theory at the special point of the parameter space where the two maximally symmetric vacua coincide. In the case of positive cosmological constant, this corresponds to the partially massless point, at which the classical theory admits de Sitter black holes and exhibits an extra conformal symmetry at linear level. We explicitly find the quantum corrected black hole geometry in the semiclassical approximation and show that it induces a relaxation of the standard asymptotic conditions. Nonetheless, the new asymptotic behavior is still preserved by an infinite-dimensional algebra, which, in addition to Virasoro, contains logarithmic supertranslations. Finally, we show that all the results we obtain for the quadratic massive gravity theory can be extended to theories including cubic and quartic terms in the curvature.
