Abstract

We examine strictly static asymptotically flat spacetimes in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity with U(1) gauge field, revealing that, up to small curvature corrections, confomally flat slices of the spacetime in question are of Minkowski origin. We consider uncharged and charged black hole solutions in the theory, showing that, up to the small curvature limit, they are diffeomorphic to Schwarzschild_Tangherlini or Reissner-Nordstrom solutions, respectively.
