We study a hairy black hole solution in the dilatonic Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory of gravitation, in which the Gauss-Bonnet term is non-minimally coupled to the dilaton field. Hairy black holes with spherical symmetry seem to be easily constructed with a positive Gauss-Bonnet coefficient $alpha$ within the coupling function, $f(phi) = alpha e^{gamma phi}$, in an asymptotically flat spacetime, i.e., no-hair theorem seems to be easily evaded in this theory. Therefore, it is natural to ask whether this construction can be expanded into the case with the negative coefficient $alpha$. In this paper, we present numerically the dilaton black hole solutions with a negative $alpha$ and analyze the properties of GB term through the aspects of the black hole mass. We construct the new integral constraint allowing the existence of the hairy solutions with the negative $alpha$. Through this procedure, we expand the evasion of the no-hair theorem for hairy black hole solutions.
The innermost stable circular orbits (ISCOs) around rapidly rotating neutron stars are studied in dilatonic Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory. Universal relations for properly scaled ISCO properties are extended from General Relativity to dilatonic Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory and additional relations are obtained.
We study the charge of the 4D-Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet black hole by a negative charge and a positive charge of a particle-antiparticle pair on the horizons r- and r+, respectively. We show that there are two types of the Schwarzschild black hole. We show also that the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet black hole charge has quantified values. We obtain the Hawking-Bekenstein formula with two logarithmic corrections, the second correction depends on the cosmological constant and the black hole charge. Finally, we study the thermodynamics of the EGB-AdS black hole.
We construct black hole solutions with spin-induced scalarization in a class of models where a scalar field is quadratically coupled to the topological Gauss-Bonnet term. Starting from the tachyonically unstable Kerr solutions, we obtain families of scalarized black holes such that the scalar field has either even or odd parity, and we investigate their domain of existence. The scalarized black holes can violate the Kerr rotation bound. We identify critical families of scalarized black hole solutions such that the expansion of the metric functions and of the scalar field at the horizon no longer allows for real coefficients. For the quadratic coupling considered here, solutions with spin-induced scalarization are entropically favored over Kerr solutions with the same mass and angular momentum.
Validating the black-hole no-hair theorem with gravitational-wave observations of compact binary coalescences provides a compelling argument that the remnant object is indeed a black hole as described by the general theory of relativity. This requires performing a spectroscopic analysis of the post-merger signal and resolving the frequencies of either different angular modes or overtones (of the same angular mode). For a nearly-equal mass binary black-hole system, only the dominant angular mode ($l=m=2$) is sufficiently excited and the overtones are instrumental to perform this test. Here we investigate the robustness of modelling the post-merger signal of a binary black hole coalescence as a superposition of overtones. Further, we study the bias expected in the recovered frequencies as a function of the start time of a spectroscopic analysis and provide a computationally cheap procedure to choose it based on the interplay between the expected statistical error due to the detector noise and the systematic errors due to waveform modelling. Moreover, since the overtone frequencies are closely spaced, we find that resolving the overtones is particularly challenging and requires a loud ringdown signal. Rayleighs resolvability criterion suggests that in an optimistic scenario a ringdown signal-to-noise ratio larger than $sim 30$ (achievable possibly with LIGO at design sensitivity and routinely with future interferometers such as Einstein Telescope, Cosmic Explorer, and LISA) is necessary to resolve the overtone frequencies. We then conclude by discussing some conceptual issues associated with black-hole spectroscopy with overtones.
In this brief report, we investigate the existence of 4-dimensional static spherically symmetric black holes (BHs) in the Einstein-complex-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet (EcsGB) gravity with an arbitrary potential $V(phi)$ and a coupling $f(phi)$ between the scalar field $phi$ and the Gauss-Bonnet (GB) term. We find that static regular BH solutions with complex scalar hairs do not exist. This conclusion does not depend on the coupling between the GB term and the scalar field, nor on the scalar potential $V(phi)$ and the presence of a cosmological constant $Lambda$ (which can be either positive or negative), as longer as the scalar field remains complex and is regular across the horizon.
