Phase transition of modified Horndeski gravity with new method

In this paper, we investigate the critical points of the $ P-V $ diagram and the phase transitions of the Horndenski black holes. In fact, the usual Horndeski black holes do not have $ P-V $ critical points, hence do not show any phase transitions. However, we successfully modify the Horndeski black hole solution to obtain such a phase transition behavior. This modified black holes solution is satisfied by the equation of state of liquid-gas phase transition. Also, we study the thermodynamics of our modified Horndeski black hole by applying a new method based on the equation of state that originated from the slope of temperature versus entropy. This new prescription provides us a simple powerful way to study the critical behavior and the phase transition of the black holes and concludes the novel results. The analytical interpretation of possible phase transition points leads us to set some nonphysical range on the horizon radius for the black hole.
