Dilaton Black Holes in de Sitter or Anti-de Sitter Universe

Poletti and Wiltshire have shown that, with the exception of a pure cosmological constant, the solution of a dilaton black hole in the background of de Sitter or anti-de Sitter universe, does not exist in the presence of one Liouville-type dilaton potential. Here with the combination of three Liouville-type dilaton potentials, we obtain the dilaton black hole solutions in the background of de Sitter or anti-de Sitter universe.Comment: 13 pages,to appear in Phys.

Higher Dimensional Dilaton Black Holes with Cosmological Constant

The metric of a higher-dimensional dilaton black hole in the presence of a cosmological constant is constructed. It is found that the cosmological constant is coupled to the dilaton in a non-trivial way. The dilaton potential with respect to the cosmological constant consists of three Liouville-type potentials.Comment: 8 pages,to appear in Phys. Lett.
