Lovelock theory and the AdS/CFT correspondence

XO Camanho, JD Edelstein… - General Relativity and …, 2014 - Springer
Lovelock theory is the natural extension of general relativity to higher dimensions. It can be
also thought of as a toy model for ghost-free higher curvature corrections in gravitational …

4D AdS Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet black hole with Yang–Mills field and its thermodynamics

DV Singh, BK Singh, S Upadhyay - Annals of Physics, 2021 - Elsevier
We derive an exact black hole solution for the Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet gravity with Yang–
Mills field in 4 D AdS spacetime and investigate its thermodynamic properties to calculate …

A Lovelock black hole bestiary

XO Camanho, JD Edelstein - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
We revisit the study of (A) dS black holes in Lovelock theories. We present a new tool that
allows to attack this problem in full generality. In analyzing maximally symmetric Lovelock …

Slowly rotating and accelerating -corrected black holes in four and higher dimensions

F Agurto-Sepúlveda, M Chernicoff, G Giribet, J Oliva… - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
We consider the low-energy effective action of string theory at order α′, including R 2
corrections to the Einstein-Hilbert gravitational action and nontrivial dilaton coupling. By …

Nonlinear charged planar black holes in four-dimensional scalar-Gauss-Bonnet theories

M Bravo-Gaete, L Guajardo, J Oliva - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
In this work, we consider the recently proposed well-defined theory that permits a healthy
D→ 4 limit of the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet combination, which requires the addition of a scalar …

Generalized phase transitions in Lovelock gravity

XO Camanho, JD Edelstein, G Giribet, A Gomberoff - Physical Review D, 2014 - APS
We investigate a novel mechanism for phase transitions that is a distinctive feature of higher-
curvature gravity theories. For definiteness, we bound ourselves to the case of Lovelock …

Black hole thermodynamics, conformal couplings, and R 2 terms

M Chernicoff, M Galante, G Giribet, A Goya… - Journal of High Energy …, 2016 - Springer
A bstract Lovelock theory provides a tractable model of higher-curvature gravity in which
several questions can be studied analytically. This is the reason why, in the last years, this …

[HTML][HTML] AdS to dS phase transition mediated by thermalon in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity from Rényi statistics

D Samart, P Channuie - Nuclear Physics B, 2023 - Elsevier
In this work, we present the possible existence of a thermalon phase transition between anti-
de Sitter (AdS) to de Sitter (dS) vacua in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity by considering the …

Traversable wormholes in five-dimensional Lovelock theory

G Giribet, ER de Celis, C Simeone - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
In general relativity, traversable wormholes are possible provided they do not represent
shortcuts in the spacetime. Einstein equations, together with the achronal averaged null …
