Generalized Chern-Simons higher-spin gravity theories in three dimensions
Ricardo Caroca, Patrick Concha, Octavio Fierro +2
The coupling of spin-3 gauge fields to three-dimensional Maxwell and -Lorentz gravity theories is presented. After showing how the usual spin-3 extensions of the and the…
Superradiance of charged black holes in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet Gravity
Octavio Fierro, Nicolas Grandi, Julio Oliva
In this paper we show that electrically charged black holes in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity suffer from a superradiant instability. It is triggered by a charged scalar field that…
Black holes in quasi-topological gravity and conformal couplings
Mariano Chernicoff, Octavio Fierro, Gaston Giribet +1
Lovelock theory of gravity provides a tractable model to investigate the effects of higher-curvature terms in the context of AdS/CFT. Yielding second order, ghost-free field equati…
