In this review, we establish the mathematical framework of geometrothermodynamics (GTD) as a formalism capable of describing non-extensive, quasi-homogeneous, selfgravitating systems in a Legendre-invariant manner. We argue that the fundamental equations of black holes are quasi-homogeneous functions, a property that invalidates the standard Euler identity of laboratory thermodynamics. We derive the metrics for the equilibrium manifold and analyze their curvature singularities for the Reissner-Nordström, Kerr, and Kerr-Newman black holes. Furthermore, we establish a direct correspondence between the curvature singularities of the equilibrium space and phase transitions, as determined by the divergences of the corresponding heat capacities.
