abstract
We review recent developments on the thermodynamics of black holes in extended phase space, where the cosmological constant is interpreted as thermodynamic pressure and treated as a thermodynamic variable in its own right. In this approach, the mass of the black hole is no longer regarded as internal energy, rather it is identified with the chemical enthalpy. This leads to an extended dictionary for black hole thermodynamic quantities, in particular a notion of thermodynamic volume emerges for a given black hole spacetime. This volume is conjectured to satisfy the reverse isoperimetric inequality - an inequality imposing a bound on the amount of entropy black hole can carry for a fixed thermodynamic volume. New thermodynamic phase transitions naturally emerge from these identifications. Namely, we show that black holes can be understood from the viewpoint of chemistry, in terms of concepts such as Van der Waals fluids, reentrant phase transitions, and triple points. We also review the recent attempts at extending the AdS/CFT dictionary in this setting, discuss the connections with horizon thermodynamics, applications to Lifshitz spacetimes, and outline possible future directions in this field.

Black hole phase transitions in AdS spacetime show critical slowing down with relaxation time scaling as τ = |ε|^{-2/3}, and this exponent is the same for RN-AdS, Kerr-AdS, and Bardeen black holes.
Lyapunov exponents act as order parameters for first-order phase transitions in Horava-Lifshitz black holes with mean-field critical exponent 1/2, while chaos bounds are violated below a horizon-radius threshold even in stable phases.

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.

In conformal Killing gravity, Schwarzschild AdS black holes obey the Bekenstein-Hawking area law, exhibit parameter-dependent Van der Waals-like phase transitions for positive values, and recover information via islands that restore the Page curve after a critical time.
Introduces a holographic pressure and volume for static spherically symmetric black holes via quasi-local thermodynamics, showing large black holes become extensive in the large-system limit while small ones do not.
Maxwell theory with auxiliary fields for the coupling constant breaks symmetries that BFT restores, making the original theory a gauge-fixed version of the extended symmetric theory.
QPO frequencies in RN AdS and Kerr geometries trace distinct thermodynamic phases and their stability when plotted against Hawking temperature.
Adapting Barnich-Compère conserved charges, the first law requires unvarying components for both the Killing vector and AdS background (true for E's ξ but not F's β), while V_C enters the β-Smarr relation due to simplifications from the principal conformal Killing-Yano tensor.
Noncommutative corrections preserve the mean-field universality class of the supercritical crossover and Widom line in charged AdS black holes.
