Generalized uncertainty principle and quantum gravitational effects on tunneling rate of Reissner-Nordström black hole (original) (raw)

Corrections to entropy and thermodynamics of charged black hole using generalized uncertainty principle

International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2015

Recently, there has been much attention devoted to resolving the quantum corrections to the Bekenstein–Hawking (black hole) entropy, which relates the entropy to the cross-sectional area of the black hole horizon. Using generalized uncertainty principle (GUP), corrections to the geometric entropy and thermodynamics of black hole will be introduced. The impact of GUP on the entropy near the horizon of three types of black holes: Schwarzschild, Garfinkle–Horowitz–Strominger and Reissner–Nordström is determined. It is found that the logarithmic divergence in the entropy-area relation turns to be positive. The entropy S, which is assumed to be related to horizon's two-dimensional area, gets an additional terms, for instance [Formula: see text], where α is the GUP parameter.

Generalized uncertainty principle and black hole entropy

Physics Letters B, 2006

Recently, there has been much attention devoted to resolving the quantum corrections to the Bekenstein-Hawking black hole entropy. In particular, many researchers have expressed a vested interest in the coefficient of the logarithmic term of the black hole entropy correction term. In this Letter, we calculate the correction value of the black hole entropy by utilizing the generalized uncertainty principle and obtain the correction terms of entropy, temperature and energy caused by the generalized uncertainty principle. We calculate Cardy-Verlinde formula after considering the correction. In our calculation, we only think that the Bekenstein-Hawking area theorem is still valid after considering the generalized uncertainty principle and do not introduce any assumption. In the whole process, the physics idea is clear and calculation is simple. It offers a new way for studying the corrections caused by the generalized uncertainty principle to the black hole thermodynamic quantity of the complicated spacetime.

An elementary introduction is given to the problem of black hole entropy as formulated by Bekenstein and Hawking, based on the so-called Laws of Black Hole Mechanics. Wheeler's 'It from Bit' picture is presented as an explanation of plausibility of the Bekenstein-Hawking Area Law. A variant of this picture that takes better account of the symmetries of general relativity is shown to yield corrections to the Area Law that are logarithmic in the horizon area, with a finite, fixed coefficient. The Holographic hypothesis, tacitly assumed in the above considerations, is briefly described and the beginnings of a general proof of the hypothesis is sketched, within an approach to quantum gravitation which is non-perturbative in nature, namely Non-perturbative Quantum General Relativity (also known as Quantum Geometry). The holographic entropy bound is shown to be somewhat tightened due to the corrections obtained earlier. A brief summary of Quantum Geometry approach is included, with a sketch of a demonstration that precisely the log area corrections obtained from the variant of the It from Bit picture adopted earlier emerges for the entropy of generic black holes within this formalism.

Black Hole Entropy and Quantum Gravity

Indian J Phys, 1998

An elementary introduction is given to the problem of black hole entropy as formulated by Bekenstein and Hawking. The information theoretic basis of Bekenstein's formulation is briefly reviewed and compared with Hawking's approach. The issue of calculating the entropy by actual counting of microstates is taken up next within two currently popular approaches to quantum gravity, viz., string theory and canonical quantum gravity. The treatment of the former assay is confined to a few remarks, mainly of a critical nature, while some of the computational techniques of the latter approach are elaborated. We conclude by trying to find commonalities between these two rather disparate directions of work.

Entropy of Quantum Black Holes

Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2012

In the Loop Quantum Gravity, black holes (or even more general Isolated Horizons) are described by a SU (2) Chern-Simons theory. There is an equivalent formulation of the horizon degrees of freedom in terms of a U (1) gauge theory which is just a gauged fixed version of the SU (2) theory. These developments will be surveyed here. Quantum theory based on either formulation can be used to count the horizon micro-states associated with quantum geometry fluctuations and from this the micro-canonical entropy can be obtained. We shall review the computation in SU (2) formulation. Leading term in the entropy is proportional to horizon area with a coefficient depending on the Barbero-Immirzi parameter which is fixed by matching this result with the Bekenstein-Hawking formula. Remarkably there are corrections beyond the area term, the leading one is logarithm of the horizon area with a definite coefficient −3/2, a result which is more than a decade old now. How the same results are obtained in the equivalent U (1) framework will also be indicated. Over years, this entropy formula has also been arrived at from a variety of other perspectives. In particular, entropy of BTZ black holes in three dimensional gravity exhibits the same logarithmic correction. Even in the String Theory, many black hole models are known to possess such properties. This suggests a possible universal nature of this logarithmic correction.

Constraints on the Generalized Uncertainty Principle from Black Hole Thermodynamics

2015

In this paper, we calculate the modification to the thermodynamics of a Schwarzschild black hole in higher dimensions because of Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP). We use the fact that the leading order corrections to the entropy of a black hole has to be logarithmic in nature to restrict the form of GUP. We observe that in six dimensions, the usual GUP produces the correct form for the leading order corrections to the entropy of a black hole. However, in five and seven dimensions a linear GUP, which is obtained by a combination of DSR with the usual GUP, is needed to produce the correct form of the corrections to the entropy of a black hole. Finally, we demonstrate that in five dimensions, a new form of GUP containing quadratic and cubic powers of the momentum also produces the correct form for the leading order corrections to the entropy of a black hole.

Quantum aspects of black hole entropy

Pramana, 2000

This survey intends to cover recent approaches to black hole entropy which attempt to go beyond the standard semiclassical perspective. Quantum corrections to the semiclassical Bekenstein-Hawking area law for black hole entropy, obtained within the quantum geometry framework, are treated in some detail. Their ramification for the holographic entropy bound for bounded stationary spacetimes is discussed. Four dimensional supersymmetric extremal black holes in string-based N = 2 supergravity are also discussed, albeit more briefly.

Black Hole Entropy: Certain Quantum Features

On Recent Developments in Theoretical and Experimental General Relativity, Gravitation and Relativistic Field Theories (In 3 Volumes), 2002

The issue of black hole entropy is reexamined within a finite lattice framework along the lines of Wheeler, 't Hooft and Susskind, with an additional criterion to identify physical horizon states contributing to the entropy. As a consequence, the degeneracy of physical states is lower than that attributed normally to black holes. This results in corrections to the Bekenstein-Hawking area law that are logarithmic in the horizon area. Implications for the holographic entropy bound on bounded spaces are discussed. Theoretical underpinnings of the criterion imposed on the states, based on the 'quantum geometry' formulation of quantum gravity, are briefly explained.

Black-hole thermodynamics with modified dispersion relations and generalized uncertainty principles

Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2006

In several approaches to the quantum-gravity problem evidence has emerged of the validity of a "GUP" (a Generalized position-momentum Uncertainty Principle) and/or a "MDR" (a modification of the energy-momentum dispersion relation), but very little is known about the implications of GUPs and MDRs for black-hole thermodynamics, another key topic for quantum-gravity research. We investigate an apparent link, already suggested in an earlier exploratory study involving two of us, between the possibility of a GUP and/or a MDR and the possibility of a log term in the area-entropy black-hole formula. We then obtain, from that same perspective, a modified relation between the mass of a black hole and its temperature, and we examine the validity of the "Generalized Second Law of black-hole thermodynamics" in theories with a GUP and/or a MDR. After an analysis of GUP-and MDR-modifications of the black-body radiation spectrum, we conclude the study with a description of the black-hole evaporation process.

Generalized uncertainty principle and black hole thermodynamics

General Relativity and Gravitation, 2014

We study the Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordström black hole thermodynamics using the simplest form of the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) proposed in the literature. The expressions for the mass-temperature relation, heat capacity and entropy are obtained in both cases from which the critical and remnant masses are computed. Our results are exact and reveal that these masses are identical and larger than the so called singular mass for which the thermodynamics quantities become ill-defined. The expression for the entropy reveals the well known area theorem in terms of the horizon area in both cases upto leading order corrections from GUP. The area theorem written in terms of a new variable which can be interpreted as the reduced horizon area arises only when the computation is carried out to the next higher order correction from GUP.
