A note on the black hole remnant

TL;DR

This paper explores how a negative log-area correction to black hole entropy might indicate the existence of a black hole remnant, discussing the implications for the minimal black hole mass.

Contribution

It introduces a potential link between entropy corrections and black hole remnants, providing insights into the minimal mass of black holes.

Findings

Negative log-area correction may be related to black hole remnants

Minimal black hole mass is discussed in context of entropy correction

Tunneling probability analysis supports the remnant hypothesis

Abstract

Analyzing the tunneling probability of a Schwarzschild black hole with a negative log-area correction to Bekenstein-Hawking entropy, I argue that this correction may be closely related to a black hole remnant. The value for the minimal black hole mass is also discussed.
