This latter approach is extended to accomodate the non-local form of the semiclassical effective action. In the two-dimensional model, the final black hole entropy can be expressed as a local quantity evaluated on the horizon. This entropy is shown to satisfy an increase theorem on either the global or apparent horizon of a two-dimensional black hole.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "1994-08-14T23:44:30.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dimensions", "final black hole entropy", "two-dimensional black hole", "developed noether charge", "non-local form" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
