Abstract

In the GEVAG (Generalized Entropy Varying-G) framework, any generalization to horizon entropy leads to a varying gravitational “constant” G eff that is a function the horizon area. In this work, it is shown that if we promote G eff to be valid in the neighborhood of the horizon, then Hawking temperature consists of two terms, the second of which is related to the variation of G eff . When applied to the logarithmic correction of the entropy, as is common across various quantum gravity approaches, the first term in the Schwarzschild black hole temperature exactly agrees with that obtained from utilizing generalized uncertainty principle (GUP), while the second term improves on the GUP result by driving the Hawking temperature to zero as the black hole approaches a minimum mass. This resolves the inconsistency in the GUP result concerning a nonzero temperature minimum mass remnant. This work also derives simple general formulas for both the thermodynamic energy and the Bekenstein bound for any correction to the area law under the same assumption that G eff can be extended off-shell in the horizon neighborhood. The (generalized) Bekenstein bound can be interpreted as a statement regarding the renormalization group scaling dimension of the entropy functional f ( A ) and the naturalness of the theory.
