Bulk-boundary thermodynamics of charged black holes in higher-derivative theory

Abstract

The connection between bulk and boundary thermodynamics in Einstein–Maxwell theory is well established using AdS/CFT correspondence. In the context of general higher-derivative gravity coupled to a U(1) gauge field, we examine the resemblance of the first law of thermodynamics between bulk and boundary, followed by an extended phase space description on both sides. Higher-derivative terms related to different powers of the string theory parameter α′\\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \\usepackage{amsmath} \\usepackage{wasysym} \\usepackage{amsfonts} \\usepackage{amssymb} \\usepackage{amsbsy} \\usepackage{mathrsfs} \\usepackage{upgreek} \\setlength{\\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \\begin{document}$$\\alpha '$$\\end{document} emerged from a consistent truncation in the bulk supergravity action.

Consequently, the Euler relation and the boundary first law are altered by adding two central charges (a,c).\\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \\usepackage{amsmath} \\usepackage{wasysym} \\usepackage{amsfonts} \\usepackage{amssymb} \\usepackage{amsbsy} \\usepackage{mathrsfs} \\usepackage{upgreek} \\setlength{\\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \\begin{document}$$({\ exttt{a}}, {\ exttt{c}}).$$\\end{document} To support our general conclusion, we consider the black hole in Gauss–Bonnet gravity and the general four-derivative theory. Finally, we examine the bulk and boundary aspects of the extended phase space description for higher-derivative-corrected black holes.
