In this article, we investigate the thermodynamic topology of some black holes, namely AdS Reissner Nordstrom (R–N), AdS Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet (EGB), and AdS Einstein-power-Yang– Mills (EPYM), from different frameworks: bulk-boundary (BB) and restricted phase space (RPS). Using the generalized off-shell Helmholtz free energy method, we calculate the thermodynamic topology of the selected black holes in each space separately and determine their topological classifications. We show that the addition of GB terms, dimensions, and other factors do not affect the topological classes of black holes in both spaces. The calculations and plots indicate that the AdS R–N and AdS EGB black holes show similar behavior and their topological numbers sets in both spaces, i.e., BB and RPS, are similar and equal to (𝑊 = +1). However, AdS EPYM black holes show an interesting behavior. In addition to BBT and RPS, we also consider the extended phase space thermodynamics (EPST) and evaluate the thermodynamic topology for AdS EPYM black hole. The changing (𝑟 − 𝜏) in both spaces shows similar behavior. Also, the topological number and the total topological numbers for this black hole in the BB, RPS and EPS thermodynamics are completely same, i,e., (𝜔𝐵𝐵𝑇 = 𝜔𝑅𝑃𝑆 = 𝜔𝐸𝑃𝑆𝑇 = +1, −1) or 𝑊𝐵𝐵𝑇 = 𝑊𝑅𝑃𝑆 = 𝑊𝐸𝑃𝑆𝑇 = 0. An important point is that the Einstein–Yang–Mills black hole has thermodynamic topology equivalence in three spaces. The present result may be due to the non-linear YM charge parameter and the difference between the gauge and gravity corrections in the above black holes.
