A Study on the logarithm correction of black hole entropy

Abstract

The logarithm correction of black hole entropy is important in understanding the essence of black hole entropy, providing a more accurate entropy calculation. We reviewed the mainstream method of logarithm correction of black hole entropy, including quantum loop gravity correction, conformal field theory correction, and classical thermal correction. Specifically, the correction of quantum loop gravity presents a stable general expression of logarithm correction, which only depends on the surface area of the black hole and solves the problem of meaningless entropy solution under a large length scale. Besides, the correction of the Cardy formula of conformal field theory is limited for the third term in depends on the mass of the black hole, which will finally lead to the unstable coefficient before the correction term. Finally, the correction deduced by the classical thermal method also gives a general expression of black hole entropy. In contrast, the entropy of BTZ black hole has a different coefficient before the logarithm term comparing to other kinds of the black hole. These results shed light for the research in general logarithm correction of black hole entropy, which is suitable for all kinds of black holes. Show more
