abstract

We consider leading order quantum corrections to the geometry of large AdS black holes in a spherical reduction of four-dimensional Einstein gravity with negative cosmological constant. The Hawking temperature grows without bound with increasing black hole mass, yet the semiclassical back-reaction on the geometry is relatively mild, indicating that observers in free fall outside a large AdS black hole never see thermal radiation at the Hawking temperature. The positive specific heat of large AdS black holes is a statement about the dual gauge theory rather than an observable property on the gravity side. Implications for string thermodynamics with an AdS infrared regulator are briefly discussed.

Quantum-statistical constraints on Kerr-anti-de Sitter thermodynamics

gr-qc · 2026-05-15 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

Quantum-statistical constraints restrict the infinite family of KadS thermodynamic descriptions to a subclass that reduces to Schwarzschild-AdS and Kerr cases in appropriate limits, with uniqueness for co-rotating and volume-coincident descriptions.
