Abstract

Logarithmic corrections to the entropy of different classes of black holes are interesting to study in the context of testing a quantum theory of gravity. Euclidean gravity approach has been successful in computing these corrections to extremal and non-extremal black hole entropy. One of the important ingredients for this approach is to calculate the Seeley-DeWitt coefficients of the kinetic operator of the massless fields in the black hole background. In this talk, we will discuss the computation of Seeley-DeWitt coefficients as well as the logarithmic corrections to the entropy of black holes in N=1 Einstein-Maxwell supergravity theory.
