Abstract

In this paper, we study thermodynamic geometry for pure Lovelock black holes. The thermodynamics scalar curvature contains information about the interaction of microstates that might be repulsive or attractive. We obtain critical exponents and critical amplitudes of scalar and extrinsic curvatures for small and large black holes for various dimensions. We demonstrate that this model thermodynamic Ricci scalar scaling behavior has a universal behavior for different dimensions. Moreover, we determine the order of phase transition by using Ehrenfest equations and the Prigogine Defay ratio. We also consider the extended phase space and investigate the critical behavior of the pure Lovelock black holes for various dimensions.
