Abstract: Multidimensional spaces are widely used in mathematics and physics. This talk will discuss the emergence of negative dimensions in black hole thermodynamics and quantum cosmology. Most black holes violate the third law of thermodynamics. The entropy of a Schwarzschild black hole is inversely proportional to the square of the temperature, and tends to infinity rather than zero when the temperature goes to zero. We are looking for quantum statistical models with such exotic thermodynamic behavior. It is shown that a Schwarzschild black hole in Language: English References
