Two issues in the first-order thermodynamics of scalar-tensor (including ``viable'' Horndeski) gravity are elucidated. The application of this new formalism to FLRW cosmology is shown to be fully legitimate and then extended to all Bianchi…

In shift-symmetric Horndeski theories, a static and spherically symmetric black hole can support linearly time-dependent scalar hair. However, it was shown that such a solution generically suffers from ghost or gradient instability in the…
It is known that the construction of a completely stable solution in Horndeski theory is restricted very strongly by the so-called no-go theorem. Previously, various techniques have been used to avoid the conditions of the theorem. In this…
