Abstract: We examine the impact of non-perturbative quantum corrections to the entropy of both charged and charged rotating quasi-topological black holes, with a focus on their thermodynamic properties. The negative-valued correction to the entropy for small black holes is found to be unphysical. Furthermore, we analyze the effect of these non-perturbative corrections on other thermodynamic quantities, including internal energy, Gibbs free energy, charge density, and mass density, for both types of black holes. Our findings indicate that the sign of the correction parameter plays a crucial role at small horizon radii. Additionally, we assess the stability and phase transitions of these black holes in the presence of non-perturbative corrections. Below the critical point, both the corrected and uncorrected specific heat per unit volume are in an unstable regime. This instability leads to a first-order phase transition, wherein the specific heat transitions from negative to positive values as the system reaches a stable state.
Examining Non-Perturbative Quantum Corrections to Black Hole Entropy
We explore the impact of non-perturbative quantum corrections on the entropy of charged and charged rotating quasi-topological black holes. The focus is on understanding the thermodynamic properties of these black holes and the implications of the corrections.
Unphysical Negative-Valued Corrections for Small Black Holes
Our analysis reveals that the non-perturbative correction leads to entropy values that are negative for small black holes. However, these negative values are considered unphysical. This discrepancy raises questions about the validity of the correction for small horizon radii.
Effects on Other Thermodynamic Quantities
In addition to entropy, we investigate the effects of non-perturbative corrections on various thermodynamic quantities such as internal energy, Gibbs free energy, charge density, and mass density. These quantities can provide further insights into the behavior of these black holes.
Significance of Correction Parameter at Small Horizon Radii
Our findings highlight the importance of the sign of the correction parameter for measuring the thermodynamic properties of black holes with small horizon radii. This observation suggests that the correction parameter may play a crucial role in understanding the physics at this scale.
Stability and Phase Transitions
We also assess the stability and phase transitions of these black holes considering the presence of non-perturbative corrections. Our results show that both the corrected and uncorrected specific heat per unit volume are in an unstable regime below the critical point. This instability leads to a first-order phase transition where the specific heat transitions from negative to positive values as the system reaches a stable state.
Roadmap to the Future
While this study provides valuable insights into the effects of non-perturbative quantum corrections on the thermodynamic properties of black holes, there are several challenges and opportunities to be addressed in future research.
Challenges

Abstract: This work explores the thermodynamic characteristics and geothermodynamics of a Bardeen black hole (BH) that interacts with a string cloud and is minimally connected to nonlinear electrodynamics. To avoid the singularities throughout the cosmic evolution, we consider an entropy function which comprises five parameters. In addition, by employing this entropy function for the specific range of parameters, we obtain the representations of BH entropy based on the holographic principle. Moreover, we employ this entropy function to investigate its impact on the thermodynamics of the BH by studying various thermodynamic properties like mass, temperature, heat capacity, and Gibbs free energy for numerous scalar charge and string cloud values. To support our investigation, we use various geothermodynamics formalisms to evaluate the stable behavior and identify different physical scenarios. Furthermore, in this analysis, we observe that only one entropy formalism provides us with better results regarding the thermodynamic behavior of the BH. Moreover, it is shown that one of the entropy models provides a thermodynamic geometric behavior compared to the other entropy models.

Abstract: This paper employs Laurent series expansions and the Robson–Villari–Biancalana (RVB) method to provide a refined derivation of the Hawking temperature for two newly introduced topological black hole solutions. Previous calculations have demonstrated inconsistencies when applying traditional methods to such exotic horizons, prompting the need for a more thorough mathematical analysis. By systematically incorporating higher-order terms in the Laurent expansions of the metric functions near the horizon and leveraging the topological features characterized by the Euler characteristic, we reveal additional corrections to the Hawking temperature beyond standard approaches. These findings underscore the subtle interplay between local geometry, spacetime topology, and quantum effects. The results clarify discrepancies found in earlier works, present a more accurate representation of thermodynamic properties for the black holes in question, and suggest broader implications for topological structures in advanced gravitational theories.

Abstract: This paper investigates the thermodynamic properties of the coexistence region of two horizons in the charged 4-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (4D-EGB) spacetime. Initially, we apply the universal first law of thermodynamics to derive the corresponding thermodynamic quantities for the coexistence region between the black hole event horizon and the cosmological event horizon, subject to the relevant boundary conditions. Next we examine the thermal properties of the thermodynamic system described by these equivalent quantities. Our analysis reveals that the peak of the heat capacity as a function of temperature exhibits characteristics similar to those observed in a paramagnetic system under specific conditions. We further conclude that, under certain conditions, the heat capacity mirrors that of a two-level system formed by two horizons with distinct temperatures. By comparing the heat capacity of the 4D-EGB spacetime’s equivalent thermodynamic system with that of a two-level system defined by the two horizons in the spacetime, we can estimate the number of microscopic degrees of freedom at the two horizons. This findings sheds light on the quantum properties of de Sitter (dS) spacetime with two horizon interfaces and offers a novel approach to exploring the quantum properties of black holes and dS spacetime.

Furthermore, we conclude that, under certain conditions, the heat capacity mirrors that of a two-level system formed by the two horizons with distinct temperatures. This comparison of the heat capacity between the 4D-EGB spacetime’s equivalent thermodynamic system and the two-level system defined by the two horizons allows us to estimate the number of microscopic degrees of freedom at these horizons.
