space, where the cosmological constant is interpreted as thermodynamic pressure and …

Quantum dilatonic gravity in d= 2, 4 and 5 dimensions

S Nojiri, SD Odintsov - International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2001 - World Scientific
We review (mainly) quantum effects in the theories where the gravity sector is described by
metric and dilaton. The one-loop effective action for dilatonic gravity in two and four …

Charged AdS black holes and catastrophic holography

A Chamblin, R Emparan, CV Johnson, RC Myers - Physical Review D, 1999 - APS
We compute the properties of a class of charged black holes in anti–de Sitter space-time, in
diverse dimensions. These black holes are solutions of consistent Einstein-Maxwell …

Surface terms as counterterms in the AdS-CFT correspondence

R Emparan, CV Johnson, RC Myers - Physical Review D, 1999 - APS
We examine the recently proposed technique of adding boundary counterterms to the
gravitational action for spacetimes which are locally asymptotic to anti–de Sitter spacetimes …

Thermodynamics of asymptotically locally AdS spacetimes

I Papadimitriou, K Skenderis - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2005 - iopscience.iop.org
We formulate the variational problem for AdS gravity with Dirichlet boundary conditions and
demonstrate that the covariant counterterms are necessary to make the variational problem …

Tunnelling, temperature, and Taub-NUT black holes

R Kerner, RB Mann - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2006 - APS
We investigate quantum tunnelling methods for calculating black hole temperature,
specifically the null-geodesic method of Parikh and Wilczek and the Hamilton-Jacobi Ansatz …

The gravitational action in asymptotically AdS and flat space-times

P Kraus, F Larsen, R Siebelink - Nuclear Physics B, 1999 - Elsevier
The divergences of the gravitational action are analyzed for space-times that are
asymptotically anti-de Sitter and asymptotically flat. The gravitational action is rendered finite …

Einstein-Born-Infeld-massive gravity: adS-black hole solutions and their thermodynamical properties

SH Hendi, BE Panah, S Panahiyan - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015 - Springer
A bstract In this paper, we study massive gravity in the presence of Born-Infeld nonlinear
electrodynamics. First, we obtain metric function related to this gravity and investigate the …

Entropy from conformal field theory at Killing horizons

S Carlip - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 1999 - iopscience.iop.org
On a manifold with a boundary, the constraint algebra of general relativity may acquire a
central extension, which can be computed using covariant phase space techniques. When …
