Constant curvature black holes are constructed by identifying points in anti-de Sitter space. In n dimensions, the resulting topology is R^{n-1} * S_1, as opposed to the usual R^2 * S_{n-2} Schwarzschild black hole, and the corresponding…
We review uniqueness theorems as well as other general results about higher dimensional black hole spacetimes. This includes in particular theorems about the topology of higher dimensional spacetimes, theorems about their symmetries…
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…
We construct black hole solutions to three-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory with both gravitational and electromagnetic Chern-Simons terms. These intrinsically rotating solutions are geodesically complete, and causally regular within a…
We investigate the topological black holes in a special class of Lovelock gravity. In the odd dimensions, the action is the Chern-Simons form for the anti-de Sitter group. In the even dimensions, it is the Euler density constructed with the…
Black holes of constant curvature are constructed by identifying points in anti-de Sitter space. In n dimensions the resulting topology is R^{n-1} * S_1, as opposed to the usual R^2 * S_{n-2} Schwarzschild black hole.
We study the contribution to entropy of Black Holes in D=2+1 dimensions from an extension of the Chern Simons theory including higher derivative in a curved space-time.
We study the dynamical Chern-Simons gravity as an effective quantum field theory, and discuss a broad range of its parameter space where the theory is valid. Within that validity range, we show that slowly rotating black holes acquire novel…
A general dilaton gravity theory in 1+1 spacetime dimensions with a cosmological constant $\lambda$ and a new dimensionless parameter $\omega$, contains as special cases the constant curvature theory of Teitelboim and Jackiw, the theory…
5-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory with Chern-Simons coefficient $\lambda=1$ has supersymmetric black holes with vanishing horizon angular velocity, but finite angular momentum. Here supersymmetry is associated with a…
The gauge sector of three-dimensional higher spin gravities can be formulated as a Chern-Simons theory. In this context, a higher spin black hole corresponds to a flat connection with suitable holonomy (smoothness) conditions which are…
It is shown that Chern-Simons gravities in $2n+1$ dimensions admit solutions described by the same lapse function which describes the BTZ black hole in the $n=1$ case. This has been carried out explicitly for $n=1,2,3$. Moreover, it is seen…
It has recently been shown that the uniqueness theorem for stationary black holes cannot be extended to five dimensions. However, uniqueness is an important assumption of the string theory black hole entropy calculations. This paper…
The five dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity with a negative cosmological constant becomes, for a special value of the Gauss-Bonnet coupling constant, a Chern-Simons (CS) theory of gravity. In this work we discuss the properties of…
A new class of vacuum black holes for the most general gravity theory leading to second order field equations in the metric in even dimensions is presented. These space-times are locally AdS in the asymptotic region, and are characterized…
We construct rotating magnetic solutions to the three-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons-dilaton theory with a Liouville potential. These include a class of black hole solutions which generalize the warped AdS black holes. The…
We discuss the quantum mechanics and thermodynamics of the (2+1)-dimensional black hole, using both minisuperspace methods and exact results from Chern-Simons theory. In particular, we evaluate the first quantum correction to the black hole…
We investigate higher spin theories of gravity in three dimensions based on the gauge group SL(N,R)*SL(N,R). In these theories the usual diffeomorphism symmetry is enhanced to include higher spin gauge transformations under which…
We review recent results concerning general properties of higher dimensional black holes. The topics selected with particular focus are those concerning topology, symmetry, and uniqueness properties of asymptotically flat vacuum black holes…
Black holes in 5-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons (EMCS) theory and their intriguing properties are discussed. For the special case of the CS coupling constant $\lambda=\lambda_{SG}$, as obtained from supergravity, a closed form…
