The existence of black holes in the Universe is nowadays established on the grounds of a blench of astrophysical observations, most notably those of gravitational waves from binary mergers and the imaging of supermassive objects at the…
We present a detailed study of the static spherically symmetric solutions in de Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley (dRGT) theory. Since the diffeomorphism invariance can be restored by introducing the St\"{u}ckelberg fields $\phi^a$, there is new…

Static spherically symmetric solutions for conformal gravity in three dimensions are found. Black holes and wormholes are included within this class. Asymptotically the black holes are spacetimes of arbitrary constant curvature, and they…
We study some features of static and spherically symmetric solutions (SSS) with a horizon in $f(R)$ theories of gravitation by means of a near-horizon analysis. A necessary condition for an $f(R)$ theory to have this type of solution is…
