abstract
The recently proposed gravitational entropy generalize the usual black hole entropy to Euclidean solutions without U(1) symmetry in the framework of Einstein gravity. The entropy of such smooth configuration is given by the area of minimal surface, therefore explaining the Ryu-Takayanagi formula of holographic entanglement entropy. In this note we investigate the generalized gravitational entropy for general Lovelock gravity in arbitrary dimensions. We use the replica trick and consider the Euclidean bulk spacetime with conical singularity localized at a codimension two surface. We obtain a constraint equation for the surface by requiring the bulk equation of motion to be of good behavior. When the bulk spacetime is maximally symmetric, the constraints show that the traces of the extrinsic curvatures of the surface are vanishing, i.e. the surface has to be geometrically a minimal surface. However the constraint equation cannot be obtained by the variation of the known functional for holographic entanglement entropy in Lovelock gravity.

Time dependence of complexity for Lovelock black holes
For Lovelock black holes, the Complexity=Action growth rate at late times is a coupling-independent multiple of the mass, and the Schwarzschild limit is recovered only up to a constant under the authors' boundary-term prescription.
