Black Hole Thermodynamics in Carathéodory's Approach

preprint2005arXivOpen access

Abstract

We show that, in the framework of Carathéodory's approach to thermodynamics, one can implement black hole thermodynamics by realizing that there exixts a quasi-homogeneity symmetry of the Pfaffian form $\deq$ representing the infinitesimal heat exchanged reversibly by a Kerr-Newman black hole; this allow us to calculate readily an integrating factor, and, as a consequence, a foliation of the thermodynamic manifold can be recovered.
