We study hair mass distributions in noncommutative Einstein-Born-Infeld hairy black holes with non-zero cosmological constants. We find that the larger noncommutative parameter makes the hair easier to condense in the near horizon area. We…

General relativity admits a plethora of exact compact object solutions. The augmentation of Einstein's action with non-minimal coupling terms leads to modified theories with rich structure, which, in turn, provide non-trivial solutions with…
Hairy black hole solutions are constructed within quantum-inspired nonlocal quadratic gravity. Nonlocal effects induce Yukawa screening, which shifts the event horizon inward and modifies both the Bekenstein--Hawking entropy and the Hawking…
Various generalizations of the scalar, axisymmetric "horizon hair" for extremal black holes have recently appeared in the literature. In this paper, we propose an expression for a non-axisymmetric gravitational "charge" and its potentially…
It is shown that anisotropic matter black holes with two parameters $w$ and $K$ correspond to nonlinear electrodynamics (NED) black holes with power-index $s$ and charge term $\xi(s,q)$ by introducing a NED term. These NED black holes…
Using a combination of analytical and numerical methods, we obtain a two-dimensional spacetime describing a black hole with tachyon hair. The physical ADM mass of the black hole is finite. The presence of tachyon hair increases the Hawking…
