abstract
Quantum gravitational corrections to black holes are studied in four and higher dimensions using a renormalisation group improvement of the metric. The quantum effects are worked out in detail for asymptotically safe gravity, where the short distance physics is characterized by a non-trivial fixed point of the gravitational coupling. We find that a weakening of gravity implies a decrease of the event horizon, and the existence of a Planck-size black hole remnant with vanishing temperature and vanishing heat capacity. The absence of curvature singularities is generic and discussed together with the conformal structure and the Penrose diagram of asymptotically safe black holes. The production cross section of mini-black holes in energetic particle collisions, such as those at the Large Hadron Collider, is analysed within low-scale quantum gravity models. Quantum gravity corrections imply that cross sections display a threshold, are suppressed in the Planckian, and reproduce the semi-classical result in the deep trans-Planckian region. Further implications are discussed.

A unified framework links the generating function for static black holes satisfying g_tt g_rr=-1 in extended quasi-topological gravity to thermodynamic mass and Wald entropy via an effective 2D dilaton theory.
Thermodynamic consistency for quantum-improved Reissner-Nordström black holes permits arbitrary radial dependence in both Newton and electromagnetic couplings, while equation-action consistency requires an extra quantum energy-momentum tensor and specific properties for the Newton coupling.
