Theoretical filters for shift-symmetric Horndeski gravities

Athanasios Bakopoulos, Christos Charmousis, Nikos Chatzifotis +1

We investigate the structure of nontrivial maximally symmetric vacua and compact-object solutions in shift-symmetric scalar-tensor theories. Focusing on Horndeski gravity, we deriv…

Smarr formula for black holes with primary and secondary scalar hair

Yun Soo Myung, Theodoros Nakas

In this work, we revisit the thermodynamics of black holes endowed with primary and secondary scalar hair in the shift and symmetric subclass of beyond Horndeski gravit…

On the uplift of 4D wormholes in Braneworld models and their 5D structure

Thomas D. Pappas, Theodoros Nakas

Recent developments for the consistent embedding of general 4D static and spherically-symmetric spacetimes in arbitrary single-brane braneworld models in the form of the General Em…

Exact black holes in string-inspired Euler-Heisenberg theory

Athanasios Bakopoulos, Thanasis Karakasis, Nick E. Mavromatos +2

We consider higher-order derivative gauge field corrections that arise in the fundamental context of dimensional reduction of String Theory and Lovelock-inspired gravities and obta…

Compact objects with primary hair in shift and parity symmetric beyond Horndeski gravities

Athanasios Bakopoulos, Nikos Chatzifotis, Theodoros Nakas

In this work, we delve into the model of the shift symmetric and parity-preserving Beyond Horndeski theory in all its generality. We present an explicit algorithm to extract static…

Black holes with primary scalar hair

Athanasios Bakopoulos, Christos Charmousis, Panagiota Kanti +2

We present explicit black holes endowed with primary scalar hair within the shift-symmetric subclass of Beyond Horndeski theories. These solutions depend, in addition to the conven…

Bridging Dimensions: General Embedding Algorithm and Field-Theory Reconstruction in 5D Braneworld Models

Theodoros Nakas, Thomas D. Pappas, Zdeněk Stuchlík

We develop a general algorithm that enables the consistent embedding of any four-dimensional static and spherically symmetric geometry into any five-dimensional single-brane branew…

Novel exact ultra-compact and ultra-sparse hairy black holes emanating from regular and phantom scalar fields

Athanasios Bakopoulos, Theodoros Nakas

In the framework of a simple gravitational theory that contains a scalar field minimally coupled to gravity, we investigate the emergence of analytic black-hole solutions with non-…

Analytic and asymptotically flat hairy (ultra-compact) black-hole solutions and their axial perturbations

Athanasios Bakopoulos, Theodoros Nakas

In this work, we consider a very simple gravitational theory that contains a scalar field with its kinetic and potential terms minimally coupled to gravity, while the scalar field…

Analytic and exponentially localized brane-world Reissner-Nordström-AdS solution: a top-down approach

Theodoros Nakas, Panagiota Kanti

In this work, we construct a five-dimensional spherically-symmetric, charged and asymptotically Anti-de Sitter black hole with its singularity being point-like and strictly localis…

Localized brane-world black hole analytically connected to an AdS boundary

Theodoros Nakas, Panagiota Kanti

We construct from first principles the geometry of an analytic, exponentially localized five-dimensional brane-world black hole. The black-hole singularity lies entirely on the 3-b…

Incorporating Physical Constraints in Braneworld Black-String Solutions for a Minkowski Brane in Scalar-Tensor Gravity

Theodoros Nakas, Panagiota Kanti, Nikolaos Pappas

In the framework of a general scalar-tensor theory, where the scalar field is non-minimally coupled to the five-dimensional Ricci scalar curvature, we investigate the emergence of…

New Black-String Solutions for an Anti-de Sitter Brane in Scalar-Tensor Gravity

Theodoros Nakas, Nikolaos Pappas, Panagiota Kanti

We consider a five-dimensional theory with a scalar field non-minimally-coupled to gravity, and we look for novel black-string solutions in the bulk. By appropriately choosing the…

Searching for Localized Black-Hole solutions in Brane-World models

Theodoros Nakas

In the context of this thesis, the question that is going to occupy us, is the existence of a 5-dimensional braneworld black hole solution that is localized close to the 3-brane an…
