Topological Black Holes with Unusual Shapes from the Unified First Law

Abstract

Topological black hole solutions with unusual shapes of the horizon in the 4-dimensional Einstein-multiple scalars theory are constructed. The application of the unified first law dramatically simplifies the construction. The speaker will talk about how to re-derive the unified first law from the Einstein equations. The space-time with product structure but without presuming maximal symmetry is concerned. Then, the first law is applied to give details about constructing topological black holes. Finally, several issues regarding the application of solutions are discussed.
