Black Hole Entropy in Two Dimensions
Abstract
Black hole entropy is studied for an exactly solvable model of two-dimensional gravityrst1, using recently developed Noether charge techniqueswald1. This latter approach is extended to accomodate the non-local form of the semiclassical effective action. In the two-dimensional model, the final black hole entropy can be expressed as a local quantity evaluated on the horizon. This entropy is shown to satisfy an increase theorem on either the global or apparent horizon of a two-dimensional black hole.
