We investigate the phase transitions of black holes with conformal anomaly in canonical ensemble. Some interesting and novel phase transition phenomena have been discovered. It is shown that there are striking differences in both Hawking temperature and phase structure between black holes with conformal anomaly and those without it. Moreover, we probe in detail the dependence of phase transitions on the choice of parameters. The results show that black holes with conformal anomaly have much richer phase structure than those without it. There would be two, only one, or no phase transition points depending on the parameters. The corresponding parameter regions are derived both numerically and graphically. Geometrothermodynamics are built up to examine the phase structure we have discovered. It is shown that Legendre invariant thermodynamic scalar curvature diverges exactly where the specific heat diverges. Furthermore, critical behaviors are investigated by calculating the relevant critical exponents. And we prove that these critical exponents satisfy the thermodynamic scaling laws.

The thermodynamic geometry of black holes with conformal anomaly has been investigated in this paper. We study two classical kinds of thermodynamic geometry. Namely, Weinhold geometry and Ruppeiner geometry. It is shown that the condition when Weinhold scalar curvature diverges is the same as the phase transition condition characterized by the divergence of specific heat. It is also shown that Ruppeiner scalar curvature not only reveals the phase structure but also contains the information of Hawking temperature. In a word, both Weinhold metric and Ruppeiner metric can correctly reproduce the phase structure of black holes even when conformal anomaly is taken into consideration.

In this paper, we further investigate the phase transitions of Born–Infeld AdS black holes in canonical ensemble. We take a different approach to investigate in detail the impact of the choice of parameters. Some interesting phase transition phenomena which has been ignored before are discovered. To examine the phase structure we find, we carry out the standard analysis of the behavior of free energy. We also apply the framework of geometrothermodynamics into Born–Infeld AdS black holes. It is shown that the Legendre invariant thermodynamic scalar curvature diverges exactly where the specific heat at constant charge diverges, which confirms the correctness of the phase structure we find. It is worth noting that although the phase structure shares similarity with RN-AdS black hole, it also has its unique characteristics due to influence of Born–Infeld electrodynamics.

AbstractIn this paper, we study spontaneous scalarization of asymptotically anti-de Sitter charged black holes in an Einstein–Maxwell-scalar model with a non-minimal coupling between the scalar and Maxwell fields. In this model, Reissner–Nordström-AdS (RNAdS) black holes are scalar-free black hole solutions, and may induce scalarized black holes due to the presence of a tachyonic instability of the scalar field near the event horizon. For RNAdS and scalarized black hole solutions, we investigate the domain of existence, perturbative stability against spherical perturbations and phase structure. In a micro-canonical ensemble, scalarized solutions are always thermodynamically preferred over RNAdS black holes. However, the system has much richer phase structure and phase transitions in a canonical ensemble. In particular, we report a RNAdS BH/scalarized BH/RNAdS BH reentrant phase transition, which is composed of a zeroth-order phase transition and a second-order one.

Using the geometrical thermodynamic approach, we study phase transition of Brans–Dicke Born–Infeld black holes. We apply introduced methods and describe their shortcomings. We also use the recently proposed new method and compare its results with those of canonical ensemble. By considering the new method, we find that its Ricci scalar diverges in the places of phase transition and bound points. We also show that the bound point can be distinguished from the phase transition points through the sign of thermodynamical Ricci scalar around its divergencies.

We consider an [Formula: see text]-dimensional topological black holes of Einstein-dilaton gravity in the presence of Born–Infeld nonlinear electrodynamics. We investigate the thermal stability in the grand canonical ensemble and show that depending on the values of the parameters, these types of black holes can experience an instable phase and with changing of the metric parameters, the stability can be influenced. Also, we study the phase transition of these black holes via thermodynamic geometry approach and show that two types of phase transition can be occurred. Finally, we extend thermodynamical space by considering dilaton field as an extensive thermodynamic parameter and check the phase transition points.

A phase transition from integrability to nonintegrability in two-dimensional Hamiltonian mappings is described and characterized in terms of scaling arguments. The mappings considered produce a mixed structure in the phase space in the sense that, depending on the combination of the control parameters and initial conditions, KAM islands which are surrounded by chaotic seas that are limited by invariant tori are observed. Some dynamical properties for the largest component of the chaotic sea are obtained and described in terms of the control parameters. The average value and the deviation of the average value for chaotic components of a dynamical variable are described in terms of scaling laws, therefore critical exponents characterizing a scaling function that describes a phase transition are obtained and then classes of universality are characterized. The three models considered are: The Fermi-Ulam accelerator model, a periodically corrugate waveguide, and variant of the standard nontwist map.

We investigate the critical behavior near the thermodynamically stable boundary for the rotating D3-, M5- and M2-branes. The static scaling laws are found to hold. The critical exponents characterizing the scaling behaviors of susceptibilities are the same and all equal 1/2 in all cases. Using the scaling laws related to the correlation functions, we predict the critical exponents of the two-point correlation function of the corresponding conformal fields. We find that the stable boundary is shifted in the different ensembles and there does not exist the stable boundary in the canonical ensemble for the rotating M2-branes.

In this paper, we investigate the phase transition of Bardeen black hole for the first time. First, we calculate thermodynamic quantities and correct the misuse of formula in former literature. Second, we investigate in detail the behavior of specific heat. We not only discuss the influence of parameter on phase transition, but also show the three-dimensional behavior of the specific heat. It is shown that phase transition takes place from a locally unstable large black hole to a locally stable small black hole. It is also shown that the location of phase transition point is proportional to the charge. Meanwhile, we study the behavior of the inverse of the isothermal compressibility and find that it diverges at the phase transition point. Thirdly, we build up geometrothermodynamics to examine the phase transition structure. It is shown that Legendre invariant thermodynamic scalar curvature diverges exactly where the specific heat diverges, which leads to the conclusion that the Legendre invariant metrics can correctly produce the behavior of the phase transition structure. Furthermore, to gain a thorough understanding of critical behavior, we calculate the relevant critical exponents and examine the scaling laws. It is shown that they are in agreement with the scaling laws.

We study ground state pairwise entanglement within one-dimensional spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic J1–J2 model with competing interactions. Contrary to some claims we found that frustration does not increase entanglement. Concurrence of nearest and next nearest neighbors are found to show abrupt change at phase transition points. We also show that the concurrence can be used to classify the phase diagram of the model in anisotropy–frustration plane.
