We present another example of superfluid black hole containing λ phase transition in Horava gravity. After studying the extended thermodynamics of general dimensional Horava-Lifshitz AdS black holes, it is found that only the one with spherical horizon in four and five dimensions has λ phase transition, which is a line of (continuous) second-order phase transitions and was famous in the discussion of superfluidity of liquid He4. The “superfluid” black hole phase and “normal” black hole phase are also distinguished. Particularly, six-dimensional Horava-Lifshitz AdS black holes exhibit infinitely many critical points in P-ν plane and the divergent points for specific heat, for which they only contain the “normal” black hole phase and the “superfluid” black hole phase disappears due to the physical temperature constraint; therefore there is no similar phase transition. In more than six dimensions, there is no P-ν critical behavior. After choosing the appropriate ordering field, we study the critical phenomena in different planes of thermodynamical phase space. We also calculate the critical exponents, which are the same as the van der Waals fluid.

In this paper, we investigate the Joule–Thomson effects of AdS black holes with a global monopole. We study the effect of the global monopole parameter [Formula: see text] on the inversion temperature and isenthalpic curves. The obtained result is compared with Joule–Thomson expansion of van der Waals fluid, and the similarities were noted. Phase transition occuring in the extended phase space of this black hole is analogous to that in van der Waals gas. Our study shows that global monopole parameter [Formula: see text] plays a very important role in Joule–Thomson expansion.

In this paper, we investigate the P–V criticality and phase transition of charged accelerating AdS black holes in the extended thermodynamic phase–space in analogy between black hole system and van der Waals liquid–gas system, where the cosmological constant [Formula: see text] is treated as a thermodynamical variable interpreted as dynamic pressure and its conjugate quantity is the thermodynamic volume of the black holes. When the electric charge vanishes, we find that no P–V criticality will appear but the Hawking–Page-like phase transition will be present, just as what Schwarzschild-AdS black holes behave like. For the charged case, the P–V criticality appears and the accelerating black holes will undergo a small black hole/large phase transition under the condition that the acceleration parameter A and the horizon radius rh meet a certain simple relation Arh = a, where a is a constant in our discussion. To make P–V criticality appear, there exists an upper bounds for constant a. When P–V criticality appears, we calculate the critical pressure P[Formula: see text], critical temperature T[Formula: see text] and critical specific volume r[Formula: see text], and we find that [Formula: see text] is an universal number.

The phase transition and critical behaviors of charged AdS black holes in [Formula: see text] gravity with a conformally invariant Maxwell (CIM) source and constant curvature are further investigated. As a highlight, this research is carried out by employing new state parameters [Formula: see text] and contributes to deeper understanding of the thermodynamics and phase structure of black holes. Our analyses manifest that the charged [Formula: see text]-CIM AdS black hole undergoes a first-order small–large black hole phase transition, and the critical behaviors qualitatively behave like a Van der Waals liquid–vapor system. However, differing from the case in Einstein’s gravity, phase structures of the black holes in [Formula: see text] theory exhibit an interesting dependence on gravity modification parameters. Moreover, we adopt the thermodynamic geometry to probe the black hole microscopic properties. The results show that, on the one hand, both the Ruppeiner curvature and heat capacity diverge exactly at the critical point, on the other hand, the [Formula: see text]-CIM AdS black hole possesses the property as ideal Fermi gases. Of special interest, we discover a microscopic similarity between the black holes and a Van der Waals liquid–vapor system.

Based on the observations that there exists an analogy between the Reissner–Nordström–Anti-de Sitter (RN–AdS) black holes and the van der Waals–Maxwell liquid-gas system, in which a correspondence of variables is (ϕ,q) ↔ (V,P), we study the Ruppeiner geometry, defined as Hessian matrix of black hole entropy with respect to the internal energy (not the mass) of black hole and electric potential (angular velocity), for the RN, Kerr and RN–AdS black holes. It is found that the geometry is curved and the scalar curvature goes to negative infinity at the Davies' phase transition point for the RN and Kerr black holes. Our result for the RN–AdS black holes is also in good agreement with the one about phase transition and its critical behavior in the literature.

Abstract Previously, the Maxwell equal-area law has been used to discuss the conditions satisfied by the phase transition of charged AdS black holes with cloud of string and quintessence, and it was concluded that black holes have phase transition similar to that of vdW system. The phase transition depends on the electric potential of the black hole and is not the one between a large black hole and a small black hole. On the basis of this result, we study the relation between the latent heat of the phase transition and the parameter of dark energy, and use the Landau continuous phase transition theory to discuss the critical phenomenon of the black hole with quintessence and give the critical exponent. By introducing the number density of the black hole molecules, some properties of the microstructure of black holes are studied in terms of a phase transition. It is found that the electric charge of the black hole and the normalization parameter related to the density of quintessence field play a key role in the phase transition. By constructing the binary fluid model of the black hole molecules, we also discuss the microstructure of charged AdS black holes with a cloud of strings and quintessence.

We construct analytical charged anti-de Sitter (AdS) black holes surrounded by perfect fluids in four dimensional Rastall gravity. Then, we discuss the thermodynamics and phase transitions of charged AdS black holes immersed in regular matter like dust and radiation, or exotic matter like quintessence, ΛCDM type, and phantom fields. Surrounded by phantom field, the charged AdS black hole demonstrates a new phenomenon of reentrant phase transition (RPT) when the parameters Q, Np, and ψ satisfy some certain condition, along with the usual small/large black hole (SBH/LBH) phase transition for the surrounding dust, radiation, quintessence, and cosmological constant fields.

We study the extended phase-space thermodynamics of black holes in massive gravity. Particularly, we examine the critical behavior of this black hole using the extended phase-space formalism. Extended phase-space can be defined as one in which the cosmological constant should be treated as a thermodynamic pressure and its conjugate variable as a thermodynamic volume. In this phase-space, we derive the black hole equation of state, the critical pressure, the critical volume and the critical temperature at the critical point. We also derive the critical ratio of this black hole. Moreover, we derive the black hole reduced equation of state in terms of the reduced pressure, the reduced volume and the reduced temperature. Furthermore, we examine the Ehrenfest equations of black holes in massive gravity in the extended phase-space at the critical point. We show that the Ehrenfest equations are satisfied on this black hole and the black hole encounters a second-order phase transition at the critical point in the said phase-space. This is re-examined by evaluating the Pregogine–Defay ratio [Formula: see text]. We determine the value of this ratio is [Formula: see text]. The outcome of this study is completely analogous to the nature of liquid–gas phase transition at the critical point. This investigation also further gives us the profound understanding between the black hole of massive gravity with the liquid–gas system.

Abstract In this paper, we extend the phase space of black holes enclosed by a spherical cavity of radius rB to include $$ V=4\pi {r}_B^3/3 $$ V = 4 π r B 3 / 3 as a thermodynamic volume. The thermodynamic behavior of Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordstrom (RN) black holes is then investigated in the extended phase space. In a canonical ensemble at constant pressure, we find that the aforementioned thermodynamic behavior is remarkably similar to that of the anti-de Sitter (AdS) counterparts with the cosmological constant being interpreted as a pressure. Specifically, a first-order Hawking-Page-like phase transition occurs for a Schwarzschild black hole in a cavity. The phase structure of a RN black hole in a cavity shows a strong resemblance to that of the van der Waals fluid. We also display that the Smarr relation has the same expression in both AdS and cavity cases. Our results may provide a new perspective for the extended thermodynamics of AdS black holes by analogy with black holes in a cavity.

Using counterterm subtraction technique we calculate the action and other thermodynamical quantities for the general Kerr–AdS black hole in five dimensions. We show that the resulting thermodynamical quantities do satisfy the first law of thermodynamics upon choosing the non-rotating Einstein space as a boundary. Furthermore, the vacuum energies and conformal anomalies calculated from both sides of the AdS/CFT duality match exactly. Comparing this result to previous known results, one is lead to raise the question: why some choices of the boundary metric produce quantities that do not satisfy the first law? Answering such a question will help us understand the relevance of the AdS vacuum energy on the gravity side.

AbstractSome ones have showed the first-order phase transition of the Horava-Lifshitz (HL) AdS black holes has unique characters from other AdS black holes. While the coexistence zone of the first-order phase transition was not exhibited. As well known the coexistence curve of a black hole carries a lot of information about black hole, which provides a powerful diagnostic of the thermodynamic properties on black hole. We study the first-order phase transition coexistence curves of the HL AdS black holes by the Maxwell’s equal-area law, and give the boundary of two-phase coexistence zone. It is very interesting that the first-order phase transition point is determined by the pressure F on the surface of the HL AdS black hole’s horizon, instead of only the pressure P (or the temperature T). This unique property distinguishes the HL AdS black hole from the other AdS black hole systems. Furthermore, this black hole system have the critical curves, and on which every point stands for a critical point.
