Abstract:
The Van der Waals-like phase transition is observed in temperature-thermal
entropy plane in spherically symmetric charged Gauss-Bonnet-AdS black hole
background. In terms of AdS/CFT, the non-local observables such as holographic
entanglement entropy, Wilson loop, and two point correlation function of very
heavy operators in the field theory dual to spherically symmetric charged
Gauss-Bonnet-AdS black hole have been investigated. All of them exhibit the Van
der Waals-like phase transition for a fixed charge parameter or Gauss-Bonnet
parameter in such gravity background. Further, with choosing various values of
charge or Gauss-Bonnet parameter, the equal area law and the critical exponent
of the heat capacity are found to be consistent with phase structures in
temperature-thermal entropy plane.
