Scalar Field Contribution to Rotating Black Hole Entropy

Abstract

Scalar field contribution to entropy is studied in arbitrary D dimensional one parameter rotating spacetime by semiclassical method. By introducing the zenithal angle dependent cutoff parameter, the generalized area law is derived. The non-rotating limit can be taken smoothly and it yields known results. The derived area law is then applied to the Banados-Teitelboim-Zanelli (BTZ) black hole in (2+1) dimension and the Kerr-Newman black hole in (3+1) dimension. The generalized area law is reconfirmed by the Euclidean path integral method for the quantized scalar field. The scalar field mass contribution is discussed briefly.
