The Lovelock black holes
C Garraffo, G Giribet - Modern Physics Letters A, 2008 - World Scientific
Lovelock theory is a natural extension of Einstein theory of gravity to higher dimensions, and
it is of great interest in theoretical physics as it describes a wide class of models. In …

Black-hole thermodynamics in Lovelock gravity
RC Myers, JZ Simon - Physical Review D, 1988 - APS
The thermodynamic properties of black holes in Lovelock gravity are examined. In particular,
the case of the Einstein Lagrangian plus the four-dimensional Euler density is discussed in …

Higher-derivative gravity, surface terms, and string theory
RC Myers - Physical Review D, 1987 - APS
We consider adding Euler densities to the Einstein action as new gravity interactions in
higher-dimensional theories. When the appropriate surface terms are included, the surface …

Spherically symmetric solutions of Einstein-Maxwell theory with a Gauss-Bonnet term
DL Wiltshire - Physics Letters B, 1986 - Elsevier
The low energy expansion of supersymmetric string theory suggests that the leading
correction to the Einstein action is given by the Gauss-Bonnet invariant. A generalisation of …
