LETTER: Entropy Using Path Integrals for Quantum Black Hole Models

Abstract: Several eigenvalue equations that could describe quantum black holes have been proposed in the canonical quantum gravity approach. In this paper, we choose one of the simplest of these quantum equations to show how the usual Feynman's path integral method can be applied to obtain the corresponding statistical properties. We get a logarithmic correction to the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy as already obtained by other authors by other means.

“…Also Kastrup [24], Mäkelä and Repo [25] and Obregon, Sabido and Tkach [27] obtained exactly the same positive correction. More recently, Major and Setter [23] obtained the correction term log A using a model which is motivated by the formulation of geometry in loop quantum gravity (they also describe the black hole in terms of a grand canonical ensemble).…”
