The thermodynamics of black holes in various dimensions are described in the presence of a negative cosmological constant which is treated as a thermodynamic variable, interpreted as a pressure in the equation of state. The black hole mass is then identified with the enthalpy, rather than the internal energy, and heat capacities are calculated at constant pressure not at constant volume. The Euclidean action is associated with a bridge equation for the Gibbs free energy and not the Helmholtz free energy. Quantum corrections to the enthalpy and the equation of state of the BTZ black hole are studied.

  1. Explicit and covariant formula for thermodynamic volume in extended black hole thermodynamics

    gr-qc 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    An explicit covariant formula for thermodynamic volume is derived that universally decomposes into explicit Lagrangian coupling dependence plus dynamical field response contributions.

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    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.

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The Smarr formula is structurally identical to the single-copy Gauss's law for Kerr-Schild black holes, with the AdS pressure-volume term arising from gauge background subtraction.
