Continuous phase transition and critical behaviors of 3D black hole with torsion

We study the phase transition and the critical behavior of the BTZ black hole with torsion obtained in $(1+2)$-dimensional Poincaré gauge theory. According to Ehrenfest's classification, when the parameters in the theory are arranged properly the BTZ black hole with torsion may posses the second order phase transition which is also a smaller mass/larger mass black hole phase transition. Nevertheless, the critical behavior is different from the one in the van der Waals liquid/gas system. We also calculated the critical exponents of the relevant thermodynamic quantities, which are the same as the ones obtained in the Hořava-Lifshitz black hole and the Born-Infeld black hole.

Existence condition and phase transition of Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter black hole

After introducing the connection between the black hole horizon and the cosmological horizon, we discuss the thermodynamic properties of Reissner-Nordstrom-de Sitter (RN-dS) spacetime. We present the condition under which RN-dS black hole can exist. Employing Ehrenfest' classification we conclude that the phase transition of RN-dS black hole is the second-order one. The position of the phase transition point is irrelevant to the electric charge of the system. It only depends on the ratio of the black hole horizon and the cosmological horizon.

Phase transition and entropy spectrum of BTZ black hole in three-dimensional gravity with torsion

In this paper, we study the phase transition and the entropy spectrum of BTZ black hole obtained in a model of three-dimensional gravity with torsion. By calculating the heat capacity we find that the BTZ black hole we considered will experience phase transition at some critical point. This indicates that the critical behaviors of black holes do not only depend on the spacetime metric, but have to do with the theory of gravity under consideration. In addition we derived the entropy spectrum of the BTZ black hole according to the quasinormal modes(QNMs) and the adiabatic invariance. It shows that the area or entropy spectrum will also rely on the concrete gravitational action.

On the critical phenomena and thermodynamics of charged topological dilaton AdS black holes

In this paper, we study the phase structure and equilibrium state space geometry of charged topological dilaton black holes in $(n+1)$-dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime. By considering the pairs of parameters $(P\sim V)$ and $(Q\sim U)$ as variables, we analyze the phase structure and critical phenomena of black holes and discuss the relation between the two kinds of critical phenomena. We find that the phase structures and critical phenomena drastically depend on the cosmological constant $l$ (or the static electric charge $Q$ of the black holes), dimensionality $n$ and dilaton field $Φ$.
