چکیده

We have studied spacetime structures of static solutions in the n-dimensional Einstein-GaussBonnet-Maxwell-Λ system. Especially we focus on effects of the Maxwell charge. We assume that the Gauss-Bonnet coefficient α is non-negative and 4α̃/l ≤ 1 in order to define the relevant vacuum state. Solutions have the (n− 2)-dimensional Euclidean sub-manifold whose curvature is k = 1, 0, or −1. In Gauss-Bonnet gravity, solutions are classified into plus and minus branches. In the plus branch all solutions have the same asymptotic structure as those in general relativity with a negative cosmological constant. The charge affects a central region of the spacetime. A branch singularity appears at the finite radius r = rb > 0 for any mass parameter. There the Kretschmann invariant behaves as O((r− rb)), which is much milder than divergent behavior of the central singularity in general relativity O(r). In the k = 1 and 0 cases plus-branch solutions have no horizon. In the k = −1 case, the radius of a horizon is restricted as rh < √ 2α̃ (rh > √ 2α̃) in the plus (minus) branch. Some charged black hole solutions have no inner horizon in Gauss-Bonnet gravity. There are topological black hole solutions with zero and negative mass in the plus branch regardless of the sign of the cosmological constant. Although there is a maximum mass for black hole solutions in the plus branch for k = −1 in the neutral case, no such maximum exists in the charged case. The solutions in the plus branch with k = −1 and n ≥ 6 have an “inner” black hole, and inner and the “outer” black hole horizons. In the 4α̃/l = 1 case, only a positive mass solution is allowed, otherwise the metric function takes a complex value. Considering the evolution of black holes, we briefly discuss a classical discontinuous transition from one black hole spacetime to another.

We study the spacetime structures of the static solutions in the n-dimensional Einstein-GaussBonnet-Λ system systematically. We assume the Gauss-Bonnet coefficient α is non-negative and a cosmological constant is either positive, zero, or negative. The solutions have the (n−2)-dimensional Euclidean sub-manifold, which is the Einstein manifold with the curvature k = 1, 0 and −1. We also assume 4...

The d-dimensional string generated gravity models lead to Einstein-Maxwell equations with quadratic order correction term called the Gauss-Bonnet term. We calculate the quasinormal modes for the d-dimensional charged black hole in the framework of this model. The quasinormal spectrum essentially depends upon the Gauss-Bonnet coupling parameter α which is related to the string scale, and is tota...

We study the thermodynamic properties associated with black hole horizon and cosmological horizon for the Gauss-Bonnet solution in de Sitter space. When the Gauss-Bonnet coefficient is positive, a locally stable small black hole appears in the case of spacetime dimension d = 5, the stable small black hole disappears and the Gauss-Bonnet black hole is always unstable quantum mechanically when d ...

Radion stabilization is analyzed in 5–dimensional models with branes in the presence of Gauss–Bonnet interactions. The Goldberger–Wise mechanism is considered for static and inflating backgrounds. The necessary and sufficient conditions for stability are given for the static case. The influence of the Gauss–Bonnet term on the radion mass and the inter–brane distance is analyzed and illustrated ...
