abstract
For any K(=2k+1)th-order Lovelock gravity with fine-tuned Lovelock couplings, we demonstrate the existence of a special isolated critical point characterized by non-standard critical exponents in the phase diagram of hyperbolic vacuum black holes. In the Gibbs free energy this corresponds to a place wherefrom two swallowtails emerge, giving rise to two first-order phase transitions between small and large black holes. We believe that this is a first example of a critical point with non-standard critical exponents obtained in a geometric theory of gravity.

An off-shell Hessian criterion H = S'_W(r_h) T'(r_h) governs thermodynamic stability of higher-curvature black holes, recovering the temperature-slope rule on physical branches and producing mean-field critical exponents.
Analyzes bulk and boundary phase transitions in deformed AdS-Schwarzschild black holes using gravitational decoupling and holographic extended thermodynamics.
Treating the cosmological constant as pressure in black hole thermodynamics yields an extended dictionary with enthalpy, thermodynamic volume, and chemical-like phase transitions including Van der Waals behavior, reentrant transitions, and triple points.
Topological numbers categorize black hole systems into universality classes based on thermodynamic behavior, with calculations for critical points and phase transitions.
