Revisiting $R^4$ higher curvature corrections to black holes

Abstract

We revisit the corrections to black holes due to the $R^4$ terms in the action. We discuss corrections to the metric and possible scalar fields, as well as corrections to thermodynamic quantities. We also comment on the large $D$ limit of the solutions.
