abstract

In an effective theory of gravity, thermodynamic quantities of black holes receive corrections from the infinite series of higher derivative terms. At the next to leading order, these can be obtained by using only the leading order solution. In this paper, we push forward this property to the next to next to leading order. We propose a formula which yields the Euclidean action of asymptotically flat black holes at the next to next to leading order using only the solution up to and including the next to leading order. Other conserved quantities are derived from the Euclidean action via standard thermodynamic relation. We verify our formula in examples of $D$-dimensional pure gravity and Einstein-Maxwell theory extended by 4- and 6-derivative terms. Based on our formula, we also prove that for asymptotically flat black holes, the physical quantities are invariant under field redefinitions.

  1. Extremalization approach to black hole thermodynamics: perturbations around higher-derivative gravities

    gr-qc 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    The Reall–Santos extremalization method is extended to perturbations around Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet backgrounds, reproducing known quasi-topological black-hole thermodynamics without solving the perturbed metric.

  2. Thermodynamic relation on rotating charged black strings with arbitrary cosmological constant

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 2.0 of 10

    For rotating charged black strings, the Goon-Penco relation follows directly from the extended first law, making the claimed universality a thermodynamic identity.
