Resumen:
Employing an assumption that in the first law of black hole thermodynamics the cosmological constant is treated as a thermodynamic variable and interpreted as thermodynamic pressure, we calculate its conjugate quantity?thermodynamic volume?for various rotating asymptotically AdS black hole spacetimes of different horizon topology in higher dimensions. Namely, we study the thermodynamic volume of singly spinning AdS black holes and thin black rings and construct the corresponding equations of state in the ultra-spinning and slow rotation regimes. For rotating black holes in d = 4 and d = 5 we show that there is a small/large black hole phase transition similar to the liquid/gas phase transition of the Van der Waals fluid with critical point characterized by the same critical exponents. In d ≥ 6 dimensions the situation is more subtle: the critical point may occur in the unstable branch of black holes, and for certain range of pressures, there exists a zeroth order phase transition, observed previously for the Born?Infeld black holes. We also study the thermodynamic volume and the equation of state in the ultra-spinning expansion when the black holes approach the regime of thin spinning membranes with high temperature and non- critical equation of state. A similar analysis is performed for thin asymptotically AdS black rings. We show that in the given approximation the volume is dominated by the angular momentum term while it still satisfies the reverse isoperimetric inequality. Interestingly, in the ultra-spinning limit, the equation of state for black rings and black holes coincide.
