Thermodynamics of Riemannian Kerr-AdS black holes in Poincaré gauge theory

Abstract

A Hamiltonian approach to black hole entropy is used to study Riemannian Kerr-AdS solutions in the general, parity-violating Poincaré gauge theory. Asymptotic charges and entropy are entirely determined by the parity-even sector of the theory, since the related parity-odd contributions vanish. The resulting thermodynamic variables are shown to satisfy the first law of black hole thermodynamics.
