Abstract
We study whether or not the Hawking-Page phase transition occurs in the topological AdS-black holes (TAdS), topological de Sitter spaces (TdS), and Schwarzschild-de Sitter black hole (SdS). It turns out that at the critical temperature $T=T_1$, the TAdS with a spherical horizon and TdS with a hyperbolic cosmological horizon can make a phase transition from thermal AdS (dS) space to the black hole. It is shown that there is no Hawking-Page transition for the TAdS and TdS with Ricci-flat horizons when the zero mass black hole and de Sitter are taken as the thermal background. Finally, we find that the SdS takes a kind of the Hawking-Page phase transition at T=0.
