abstract

Many recent attempts to calculate black hole entropy from first principles rely on conformal field theory techniques. By examining the logarithmic corrections to the Cardy formula, I compute the first-order quantum correction to the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy in several models, including those based on asymptotic symmetries, horizon symmetries, and certain string theories. Despite very different physical assumptions, these models all give a correction proportional to the logarithm of the horizon size, and agree qualitatively with recent results from ``quantum geometry'' in 3+1 dimensions. There are some indications that even the coefficient of the correction may be universal, up to differences that depend on the treatment of angular momentum and conserved charges.

Statistical Physics of Planar Carroll Systems

math-ph · 2026-06-22 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Planar Carrollian statistical physics is well-defined thanks to central extensions and rotation, yielding logarithmic entropy scaling with disc area and two-dimensional ideal-gas pressure.

Thermodynamics of thin-shell wormholes

gr-qc · 2026-06-24 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

The paper derives a generalized first law for thin-shell wormholes showing entropy conservation for isolated transparent shells and flux-dependent entropy change when bulk matter crosses the throat.

Modular quantization and black holes

hep-th · 2026-06-10 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Modular quantization of a single holographic CFT reproduces exact Hartle-Hawking correlators of smooth BTZ black holes in the semiclassical limit while yielding non-smooth stretched-horizon descriptions at finite GN.

Hawking area law in quantum gravity

gr-qc · 2026-04-20 · conditional · novelty 5.0

If Hawking's area law is taken as exact, nonlocal and Stelle quantum-gravity theories are forced to drop R^2 and (Riemann)^2 terms (or use singular Ricci-flat black holes), and the standard entropy-area law follows as a consequence.

Classical Corrections to Black Hole Entropy II

gr-qc · 2026-05-29 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

Modeling black hole absorption as discrete recursion yields area-law entropy with logarithmic corrections whose coefficients depend on spacetime dimension and charge for Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordström cases.

When Black Holes Can Wear Pants

gr-qc · 2026-06-23 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

Theoretical investigation of black hole fragmentation possibilities beyond standard GR constraints, with relevance to primordial black holes and mergers.
