Let $f\in \mathbb{R}[x, y, z]$ be a quadratic polynomial that depends on each variable and that does not have the form $g(h(x)+k(y)+l(z))$. Let $A, B, C$ be compact sets in $\mathbb{R}$. Suppose that $\dim_H(A)+\dim_H(B)+\dim_H(C)>2$, then…
We obtain classes of black hole solutions constructed from multiplets of scalar fields in 2+1 / 3+1 dimensions. The multi-component scalars don't undergo a symmetry breaking so that only the isotropic modulus is effective. The Lagrangian is…
