Schwarzschild-anti de Sitter within an Isothermal Cavity: Thermodynamics, Phase Transitions and the Dirichlet Problem
The thermodynamics of Schwarzschild black holes within an isothermal cavity
and the associated Euclidean Dirichlet boundary-value problem are studied for
four and higher dimensions in anti-de Sitter (AdS) space. For such boundary
conditions classically there always exists a unique hot AdS solution and two or
no Schwarzschild-AdS black-hole solutions depending on whether or not the
temperature of the cavity-wall is above a minimum value, the latter being a
function of the radius of the cavity. Assuming the standard area-law of
black-hole entropy, it was known that larger and smaller holes have positive
and negative specific heats and hence are locally thermodynamically stable and
unstable respectively. In this paper we present the first derivation of this by
showing that the standard area law of black-hole entropy holds in the
semi-classical approximation of the Euclidean path integral for such boundary
conditions. We further show that for wall-temperatures above a critical value a
phase transition takes hot AdS to the larger Schwarzschild-AdS within the
cavity. The larger hole thus can be globally thermodynamically stable above
this temperature. The phase transition can occur for a cavity of arbitrary
radius above a (corresponding) critical temperature. In the infinite cavity
limit this picture reduces to that considered by Hawking and Page. The case of
five dimensions is found to be rather special since exact analytic expressions
can be obtained for the masses of the two holes as functions of cavity radius
and temperature thus solving exactly the Euclidean Dirichlet problem. This
makes it possible to compute the on-shell Euclidean action as functions of them
from which other quantities of interest can be evaluated exactly.Comment: 23 pages, Late
Thermodynamic Interpretation of Field Equations at Horizon of BTZ Black Hole
A spacetime horizon comprising with a black hole singularity acts like a
boundary of a thermal system associated with the notions of temperature and
entropy. In case of static metric of BTZ black hole, the field equations near
horizon boundary can be expressed as a thermal identity ,
where is the mass of BTZ black hole, is the change in the area of
the black hole horizon when the horizon is displaced infinitesimally small,
is the radial pressure provided by the source of Einstein equations,
is the entropy and is the Hawking temperature
associated with the horizon. This approach is studied further to generalize it
for non-static BTZ black hole and show that it is also possible to interpret
the field equation near horizon as a thermodynamic identity , where is the angular velocity and is the
angular momentum of BTZ black hole. These results indicate that the field
equations for BTZ black hole possess intrinsic thermodynamic properties near
horizon.Comment: 8 page

Ricci-flat Metrics with U(1) Action and the Dirichlet Boundary-value Problem in Riemannian Quantum Gravity and Isoperimetric Inequalities
The Dirichlet boundary-value problem and isoperimetric inequalities for
positive definite regular solutions of the vacuum Einstein equations are
studied in arbitrary dimensions for the class of metrics with boundaries
admitting a U(1) action. We show that in the case of non-trivial bundles
Taub-Bolt infillings are double-valued whereas Taub-Nut and Eguchi-Hanson
infillings are unique. In the case of trivial bundles, there are two
Schwarzschild infillings in arbitrary dimensions. The condition of whether a
particular type of filling in is possible can be expressed as a limitation on
squashing through a functional dependence on dimension in each case. The case
of the Eguchi-Hanson metric is solved in arbitrary dimension. The Taub-Nut and
the Taub-Bolt are solved in four dimensions and methods for arbitrary dimension
are delineated. For the case of Schwarzschild, analytic formulae for the two
infilling black hole masses in arbitrary dimension have been obtained. This
should facilitate the study of black hole dynamics/thermodynamics in higher
dimensions. We found that all infilling solutions are convex. Thus convexity of
the boundary does not guarantee uniqueness of the infilling. Isoperimetric
inequalities involving the volume of the boundary and the volume of the
infilling solutions are then investigated. In particular, the analogues of
Minkowski's celebrated inequality in flat space are found and discussed
providing insight into the geometric nature of these Ricci-flat spaces.Comment: 40 pages, 3 figure

\bbbc P^2 and \bbbc P^{1} Sigma Models in Supergravity: Bianchi type IX Instantons and Cosmologies
We find instanton/cosmological solutions with biaxial Bianchi-IX symmetry,
involving non-trivial spatial dependence of the \bbbc P^{1}- and \bbbc
P^{2}-sigma-models coupled to gravity. Such manifolds arise in N=1,
supergravity with supermatter actions and hence the solutions can be embedded
in supergravity. There is a natural way in which the standard coordinates of
these manifolds can be mapped into the four-dimensional physical space. Due to
its special symmetry, we start with \bbbc P^{2} with its corresponding scalar
Ansatz; this further requires the spacetime to be -invariant. The problem then reduces to a set of ordinary differential
equations whose analytical properties and solutions are discussed. Among the
solutions there is a surprising, special-family of exact solutions which owe
their existence to the non-trivial topology of \bbbc P^{2} and are in 1-1
correspondence with matter-free Bianchi-IX metrics. These solutions can also be
found by coupling \bbbc P^{1} to gravity. The regularity of these Euclidean
solutions is discussed -- the only possibility is bolt-type regularity. The
Lorentzian solutions with similar scalar Ansatz are all obtainable from the
Euclidean solutions by Wick rotation
Entropy Corrections for Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordstr\"om Black Holes
Schwarzschild black hole being thermodynamically unstable, corrections to its
entropy due to small thermal fluctuations cannot be computed. However, a
thermodynamically stable Schwarzschild solution can be obtained within a cavity
of any finite radius by immersing it in an isothermal bath. For these boundary
conditions, classically there are either two black hole solutions or no
solution. In the former case, the larger mass solution has a positive specific
heat and hence is locally thermodynamically stable. We find that the entropy of
this black hole, including first order fluctuation corrections is given by:
{\cal S} = S_{BH} - \ln[\f{3}{R} (S_{BH}/4\p)^{1/2} -2]^{-1} + (1/2)
\ln(4\p), where is its Bekenstein-Hawking entropy and is the
radius of the cavity. We extend our results to four dimensional
Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes, for which the corresponding expression is:
{\cal S} = S_{BH} - \f{1}{2} \ln [ {(S_{BH}/\p R^2) ({3S_{BH}}/{\p R^2} -
2\sqrt{{S_{BH}}/{\p R^2 -\a^2}}) \le(\sqrt{{S_{BH}}/{\p R^2}} - \a^2 \ri)}/
{\le({S_{BH}}/{\p R^2} -\a^2 \ri)^2} ]^{-1} +(1/2)\ln(4\p). Finally, we
generalise the stability analysis to Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes in
arbitrary spacetime dimensions, and compute their leading order entropy
corrections. In contrast to previously studied examples, we find that the
entropy corrections in these cases have a different character.Comment: 6 pages, Revtex. References added, minor changes. Version to appear
