Static multipolar Einstein-vector-Gauss-Bonnet black holes

Abstract

We construct and analyze static multipolar black holes in Einstein-vector-Gauss-Bonnet theory with a quadratic coupling function. The vectorized solutions bifurcate from the Schwarzschild black hole at discrete values of the Gauss-Bonnet coupling, obtained from a perturbative eigenvalue problem on the Schwarzschild background and labelled by the angular multipole number ℓ. We restrict to the fundamental radial branches. The electric sector contains the known spherically symmetric ℓ=0 branch as well as axisymmetric branches with ℓ>0. These electric branches extend to larger values of the coupling. The magnetic sector features a sequence of axisymmetric branches, including the previously found magnetic dipole branch at ℓ=0. The magnetic branches instead exist only on finite intervals of the coupling, ending at critical solutions. Away from the bifurcation point, nonlinearities generate additional multipoles, but even-ℓ and odd-ℓ moments remain separated.
