CFT and Logarithmic Corrections to the Black Hole Entropy Product Formula by Parthapratim Pradhan

“…We argue that, in logarithmic corrections to the BH entropy product formula when calculated using CFT and taking into account the effects of quantum fluctuations around the thermal equilibrium, the formula should not be universal and it also should not be quantized. These results have been explicitly checked by giving several examples.…”
