Abstract

We study circular null orbits, thermodynamic topology, and the holographic thermodynamic description of a four-dimensional magnetically charged AdS black hole in nonlinear electrodynamics. The background orbit structure is classified using Duan s phi-mapping construction and compared with the extraordinary electromagnetic characteristics. The latter defines an effective optical metric with an additional radial factor that modifies the orbit condition and introduces explicit dependence on the AdS radius. For four representative configurations, the local indices of the five isolated orbits are unchanged while their radii shift by up to 5.187 %. The background mass thresholds vary smoothly across sigma = 1/4 when the total mass is used, whereas the fixed-m0 parametrization is singular there. Regularity at the center requires sigma > 1 and m0 = 0. The thermodynamic analysis separates local stability indices from equilibrium coexistence: stable Gibbs-free-energy branches cross only in model-dependent parameter intervals. The boundary canonical ensemble exhibits critical behavior consistent with mean-field exponents, and the examined grand-canonical ensemble has a Hawking-Page crossing. In the mixed ensemble, the free-energy branches have a finite endpoint discontinuity, but the sampled competing states do not satisfy the full local-stability criterion

Introduction

Topological methods provide a way to classify black-hole properties that is less sensitive to the details of a particular solution. The approach adopted here is based on Duan’s ϕ\phi-mapping theory [1]: a two-dimensional vector field is constructed from a scalar function, and its zero points carry integer winding numbers. Their sum, the total topological charge (TTC), remains unchanged under smooth deformations, provided the relevant boundary conditions are preserved, and can therefore be used to distinguish topological classes. This framework has been applied to light rings and photon spheres [58, 59, 60, 61] and to black-hole thermodynamics [72, 73], and has since been explored in a wide range of gravitational models [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57].

For photon spheres, Cunha and collaborators established topological results for light rings around ultracompact objects and black holes, including the existence and stability properties of the relevant circular null orbits [58, 59, 60]. We subsequently related these results to a topological charge and extended the analysis asymptotically anti-de Sitter and de Sitter spacetimes [61]. In our previous work, this correspondence was used to classify the spacetime around black holes and to organize parameter ranges by their horizon and orbit structure [62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68]. We apply this construction to the circular null geodesics of the background metric and to the extraordinary electromagnetic characteristics. The distinction is relevant in nonlinear electrodynamics, where the propagation cone depends on derivatives of the electromagnetic Lagrangian [99, 100].

A complementary line of research applies topological methods to black-hole thermodynamics. In the conventional approach, one studies the temperature as a function of the horizon radius and examines the Gibbs free energy to identify phase transitions; a crossing of the locally stable branches of a free-energy swallowtail, for example, identifies a first-order small–large black-hole transition [69, 70, 71]. Wei, Liu and Mann showed that this information can also be encoded in the zeros of a vector field constructed from a generalized free energy, with the associated topological charges distinguishing stable and unstable branches [72, 73]. Subsequent studies have applied this method to a variety of black-hole solutions and thermodynamic ensembles. The present analysis uses the topological classification alongside the temperature and free-energy curves, so that the topological results can be checked against the conventional thermodynamic description.

The holographic description of black-hole thermodynamics provides a further connection between bulk gravitational physics and the thermodynamics of a dual conformal field theory (CFT). In extended black-hole thermodynamics, variations of the cosmological constant and Newton’s constant can be translated into variations of boundary thermodynamic quantities, including the CFT central charge and its conjugate chemical potential [92, 94]. This dictionary has been used to study ensemble-dependent phase transitions and critical behavior for charged and rotating AdS black holes [93, 95]. Related work has examined holographic phase transitions in charged Gauss–Bonnet gravity [71], the relation between CFT thermodynamics and the weak gravity and weak cosmic censorship conjectures [98], and classical and topological CFT thermodynamics in Lifshitz and hyperscaling-violating geometries [96]. Recent applications to Einstein–Maxwell–power–Yang–Mills AdS black holes further illustrate how nonlinear gauge sectors can influence the phase structure of the boundary theory [97]. Together, these studies provide the context for examining the holographic thermodynamics of the magnetically charged nonlinear-electrodynamics black hole considered here.

The black hole studied in this work is the magnetically charged solution of Einstein gravity with a negative cosmological constant coupled to a two-parameter nonlinear electrodynamics, introduced by Kruglov [89]. That work presented the metric and mass functions, the extended first law, the Smarr relation, the heat capacity and the Gibbs free energy, and estimated a critical pressure of approximately 0.003 for q=1q=1, β=0.1\beta=0.1 and σ=0.75\sigma=0.75 from the Gibbs free energy, since the critical point is not available in closed analytic form. We study the dependence of the horizon and background-orbit structure, together with thermodynamic topology, on β\beta, σ\sigma and qq. We also verify numerically the Smarr relation, including the 2βB2\beta\mathcal{B} term established in Ref. [89], and extend the holographic dictionary of Refs. [92, 93, 94] to this model.

The paper is organized as follows. Section II summarizes the topological construction for photon spheres. Section III introduces the model, discusses the relation between the integration constant in the metric and the total mass, and presents the background classification and the effective-optical comparison. Section IV gives the extended first law and Smarr relation and examines the thermodynamic topology and free energy. Section V constructs the holographic dictionary, checks the first law and Euler relation of the dual CFT, and studies the relevant ensembles, critical point and critical exponents. Section VI presents our conclusions.

Topological Description of Circular Null Orbits

Photon spheres are linked to gravitational lensing and to the shadow of a black hole [4, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80], and circular null orbits, their stability and the associated photon surfaces have been studied extensively [81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88]. The construction used here is described in detail in Refs. [58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64]; only the relations needed below are recalled. The construction applies to a static metric on a nondegenerate domain. In the background analysis below, “photon sphere” denotes a circular null orbit of the spacetime metric; the effective electromagnetic orbits are treated in § 1.2 H. A static, spherically symmetric metric is written as

ds2=−f(r)dt2+dr2g(r)+h(r)(dθ2+sin⁡2θ dφ2).(1)ds^2=-f(r)dt^2+\frac{dr^2}{g(r)}+h(r)\left(d\theta^2+\sin^2\theta\,d\varphi^2\right). \tag*{(1)}

For null geodesics in the equatorial plane θ=π/2\theta=\pi/2 the Lagrangian is L=12gμνx˙μx˙ν=0\mathcal{L}=\frac{1}{2}g_{\mu\nu}\dot{x}^{\mu}\dot{x}^{\nu}=0, with conserved energy E=ft˙E= f\dot{t} and angular momentum L=hϕ˙L=h\dot{\phi}. The condition L=0\mathcal{L}=0 is equivalent to r˙2+Veff(r)=0\dot{r}^{2}+V_{\mathrm{eff}}(r)=0 with

Veff(r)=g(r)(L2h(r)−E2f(r)).(2)V_{\mathrm{eff}}(r)=g(r)\left(\frac{L^2}{h(r)}-\frac{E^2}{f(r)}\right). \tag*{(2)}

A circular null orbit satisfies Veff=Veff′=0V_{\mathrm{eff}}=V_{\mathrm{eff}}'=0. Because VeffV_{\mathrm{eff}} depends on the null geodesic’s constants of motion EE and LL, the function

H(r,θ)=−gttgφφ=1sin⁡θf(r)h(r)(3)\mathbf{H}(r,\theta)=\sqrt{\frac{-g_{tt}}{g_{\varphi\varphi}}}=\frac{1}{\sin\theta}\sqrt{\frac{f(r)}{h(r)}} \tag*{(3)}

is used instead, since it is built from the metric alone. Its extrema in rr at θ=π/2\theta=\pi/2 coincide with the circular photon orbits: a maximum corresponds to an unstable photon sphere (U-PS) and a minimum to a stable one (S-PS). In the θ\theta direction, H\mathbf{H} always has a minimum at θ=π/2\theta=\pi/2. The vector field

ϕ=(ϕr,ϕθ)=(g ∂rH,∂θHh)(4)\boldsymbol{\phi}=(\phi^r,\phi^\theta)=\left(\sqrt{g}\,\partial_r\mathbf{H},\frac{\partial_\theta\mathbf{H}}{\sqrt{h}}\right) \tag*{(4)}

vanishes precisely at these orbits. With ϕ=∥ϕ∥eiΩ\boldsymbol{\phi}=\|\boldsymbol{\phi}\|e^{i\Omega}, the winding number of a zero point ziz_i is

ωi=12π∮CidΩ,Ω=arctan⁡ϕθϕr,(5)\omega_i=\frac{1}{2\pi}\oint_{C_i}d\Omega,\qquad\Omega=\arctan\frac{\phi^\theta}{\phi^r}, \tag*{(5)}

where CiC_i is a closed counterclockwise curve in the (r,θ)(r,\theta) plane that encloses only ziz_i, and Ω\Omega is evaluated with a two-argument arctangent and unwrapped continuously along a parametrization of CiC_i. Equivalently, ωi=κiζi\omega_i=\kappa_i\zeta_i, where the Hopf index κi≥1\kappa_i\geq1 is the number of times the normalized field n=ϕ/∥ϕ∥\boldsymbol{n}=\boldsymbol{\phi}/\|\boldsymbol{\phi}\| covers the unit circle around ziz_i, and ζi=±1\zeta_i=\pm1 is the sign of the Jacobian of ϕ\boldsymbol{\phi} at the zero point. The associated topological current jμ=(2π)−1ϵμνρϵab∂νϕa∂ρϕbj^\mu=(2\pi)^{-1}\epsilon^{\mu\nu\rho}\epsilon_{ab}\partial_\nu\phi^a\partial_\rho\phi^b, with the indices running over (t,r,θ)(t,r,\theta), is identically conserved, ∂μjμ=0\partial_\mu j^\mu=0, and is supported on the zeros of ϕ\boldsymbol{\phi}. The total charge is

Q=∑iωi.(6)Q=\sum_i\omega_i. \tag*{(6)}

Near a maximum of H\mathbf{H} in rr the field behaves as (ϕr,ϕθ)∝(−x,y)(\phi^r,\phi^\theta)\propto(-x,y), a saddle with ω=−1\omega=-1; near a minimum it behaves as (x,y)(x,y) with ω=+1\omega=+1. For an exterior domain satisfying the horizon and asymptotic hypotheses of Refs. [58, 59, 60, 61], the background charge is Q=−1Q=-1: the number of unstable photon spheres outside the horizon exceeds the number of stable ones by one. We distinguish singular horizonless configurations with a stable–unstable background pair (NS) from those without background circular null orbits (NS0). Both can have Q=0Q=0: a pair contributes +1−1+1-1, whereas an orbit-free domain has an empty sum. Singularity is determined from the central geometry and horizon structure, not from the total index. Their formation from regular initial data is a dynamical question related to weak cosmic censorship [102].

The Four-Dimensional AdS Magnetic Black Hole

Solution and mass parameters

The action is

I=∫d4x−g[R−2Λ16πG+L(F)].(7)I=\int d^4x\sqrt{-g}\left[\frac{R-2\Lambda}{16\pi G}+\mathcal{L}(\mathcal{F})\right]. \tag*{(7)}

with Λ=−3/l2\Lambda=-3/l^{2} and the nonlinear electrodynamics Lagrangian [89]

L(F)=−F4π(1+2βF)σ,F=FμνFμν4=B2−E22.(8)\mathcal{L}(\mathcal{F})=-\frac{\mathcal{F}}{4\pi(1+2\beta\mathcal{F})^{\sigma}},\qquad\mathcal{F}=\frac{F_{\mu\nu}F^{\mu\nu}}{4}=\frac{B^{2}-E^{2}}{2}. \tag*{(8)}

The coupling β>0\beta>0 has dimension [L4][L^{4}] in units c=ℏ=1c=\hbar=1 and [L2][L^{2}] in the geometrized units G=c=1G=c=1 used below, in which the charge qq has the dimension of a length, and σ>0\sigma>0 is dimensionless. In the weak-field limit the Lagrangian reduces to that of Maxwell. For the magnetic field B=q/r2B=q/r^{2} one finds, in units G=1G=1,

f(r)=1−2m0r+r2l2−I(r)r,(9)f(r)=1-\frac{2m_{0}}{r}+\frac{r^{2}}{l^{2}}-\frac{\mathcal{I}(r)}{r}, \tag*{(9)}
I(r)=q2r4σ−1(4σ−1)(βq2)σ 2F1(σ,σ−14;σ+34;−r4βq2),(10)\mathcal{I}(r)=\frac{q^{2}r^{4\sigma-1}}{(4\sigma-1)(\beta q^{2})^{\sigma}}\,{}_2F_{1}\left(\sigma,\sigma-\frac{1}{4};\sigma+\frac{3}{4};-\frac{r^{4}}{\beta q^{2}}\right), \tag*{(10)}

where m0m_{0} is an integration constant and 2F1(a,b;c;z){}_2F_{1}(a,b;c;z) is the Gauss hypergeometric function. The function I\mathcal{I} is the integral of the magnetic energy density, and its derivative is elementary,

I′(r)=q2r4σ−2(r4+βq2)σ.(11)\mathcal{I}'(r)=\frac{q^{2}r^{4\sigma-2}}{(r^{4}+\beta q^{2})^{\sigma}}. \tag*{(11)}
