Decreasing entropy of dynamical black holes in critical gravity
Maeda, H.; Švarc, R.; Podolský, J.
Critical gravity is a quadratic curvature gravity in four dimensions which
is ghost-free around the AdS background. Constructing a Vaidya-type exact solution,
we show that the area of a black hole defined by a future outer trapping horizon can
shrink by injecting a charged null fluid with positive energy density, so that a black hole
is no more a one-way membrane even under the null energy condition. In addition, the
solution shows that the Wald-Kodama dynamical entropy of a black hole is negative and
can decrease. These properties expose the pathological aspects of critical gravity at the
non-perturbative level.
