On the thermodynamic side, it describes how new developments allowed the inclusion of pressure/volume terms in the first law, leading to a new understanding of black holes as chemical systems, experiencing novel phenomena such as triple points and reentrant phase transitions. On the quantum-information side, the reader learns how basic arguments undergirding quantum complementarity have been shown to be flawed; and how this suggests that a black hole may surround itself with a firewall: a violent and chaotic region of highly excited states. In this thorough and pedagogical treatment, Robert Mann traces these new developments from their roots to our present-day understanding, highlighting their relationships and the challenges they present for quantum gravity.SpringerBriefs in Physics,2191-5423GravitationCosmologyThermodynamicsClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19070Cosmologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22049Thermodynamicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21050Gravitation.Cosmology.Thermodynamics.Classical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory.Cosmology.Thermodynamics.523.8875Mann Robert Bauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut792239MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910739444803321Black Holes1771481UNINA
