Then, we derive the expressions for the Floquet exponents of the Mukhanov–Sasaki variable.

The free energy landscape is constructed using the Gibbons-Hawking path integral method. The black hole phases are characterized by taking its horizon radius as the order parameter. The free energy landscape provides three black hole phases: small, intermediate, and large. The small and large black holes are thermodynamically stable whereas the intermediate one is unstable. The Martin–Siggia–Rose–Janssen–de Dominicis (MSRJD) functional describes the stochastic dynamics of black hole phase transition. The Hamiltonian flow lines are obtained from the MSRJD functional and are used to analyze the stability and the phase transition properties. The dominant kinetic path between different phases is discussed for various configurations of the free energy landscape.
