Observables for two-dimensional black holes
Open accessAbstract
We consider the most general dilaton gravity theory in 1+1 dimensions. By suitably parametrizing the metric and scalar field we find a simple expression that relates the energy of a generic solution to the magnitude of the corresponding Killing vector. In theories that admit black hole solutions, this relationship leads directly to an expression for the entropy S=2\ensuremath{\pi}${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\tau}}}_{0}$/G, where ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\tau}}}_{0}$ is the value of the scalar field (in this parametrization) at the event horizon. This result agrees with the one obtained using the more general method of Wald. Finally, we point out an intriguing connection between the black hole entropy and the imaginary part of the ``phase'' of the exact Dirac quantum wave functionals for the theory.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
