In the light of recent results relating dynamic and thermodynamic stability of relativistic stars and black holes, we re-examine the relationship between ‘turning points’—i.e., extrema of thermodynamic variables along a 1-parameter family of solutions—and instabilities. We give a proof of Sorkin’s general result—showing the existence of a thermodynamic instability on one side of a turning point—that does not rely on heuristic arguments involving infinite-dimensional manifold structure. We use the turning point results to prove the existence of a dynamic instability of black rings in five spacetime dimensions in the region where cJ > 0, in agreement with a result of Figueras, Murata and Reall.
