The properties of higher-dimensional black holes can differ significantly from those of black holes in four dimensions, since neither the uniqueness theorem, nor the staticity theorem or the topological censorship theorem generalize to…

Non-abelian black strings in a 5-dimensional Einstein-Yang-Mills model are considered. The solutions are spherically symmetric non-abelian black holes in 4 dimensions extended into an extra dimension and thus possess horizon topology S^2 x…

We present two different families of stationary black strings in three dimensions carrying electric and axion charges. Both solutions contain a singular region, which however is quite harmless for string frame geodesic observers, because…
