Charged Black Holes in AdS Spaces in $4D$ Einstein Gauss-Bonnet Gravity (2003.05491v3)

Abstract: Recently a non-trivial 4-dimensional theory of gravity that claims to circumvent Lovelock's theorem and avoid Ostrogradsky instability was formulated in [D. Glavan and C. Lin, Phys. Rev. Lett. 124, 081301 (2020)]. This theory, named "$4D$ Einstein Gauss-Bonnet gravity", presents several novel predictions for cosmology and black hole physics. In this paper, we generalize the vacuum black hole solution of Glavan & Lin to include electric charge in an anti-de Sitter space and explore some properties of this solution such as the asymptotics, properties of the horizons, the general relativity limit and thermodynamics.
