Tricritical point and solid/liquid/gas phase transition of higher dimensional AdS black hole in massive gravity


Abstract in English

By considering the fifth order term of the interaction potential in massive gravity theory, we study the $P-V$ critical behaviors of AdS black hole in $d geq 7$ dimensional space-time, and find the tricritical point and the solid/liquid/gas phase transition in addition to the Van der Waals-like phase and the reentrant phase transition of the system. The critical phenomena of black holes depend crucially on the number $n$ of interaction potential terms.
