Magnetic Brane of Cubic Quasi-Topological Gravity in the Presence of Maxwell and Born-Infeld Electromagnetic Field
The main purpose of the present paper is analyzing magnetic brane solutions
of cubic quasi-topological gravity in the presence of a linear electromagnetic
Maxwell field and a nonlinear electromagnetic Born-Infeld field. We show that
the mentioned magnetic solutions have no curvature singularity and also no
horizons, but we observe that there is a conic geometry with a related deficit
angle. We obtain the metric function and deficit angle and consider their
behavior. We show that the attributes of our solution are dependent on cubic
quasi-topological coefficient and the Gauss-Bonnet parameter.Comment: 15 pages and 8 figure
Surface Terms of Quartic Quasitopological Gravity and Thermodynamics of Nonlinear Charged Rotating Black Branes
As in the case of Einstein or Lovelock gravity, the action of quartic
quasitopological gravity has not a well-defined variational principle. In this
paper, we first introduce a surface term that makes the variation of quartic
quasitopological gravity well defined. Second, we present the static charged
solutions of quartic quasitopological gravity in the presence of a non linear
electromagnetic field. One of the branch of these solutions presents a black
brane with one or two horizons or a naked singularity depending on the charge
and mass of the solution. The thermodynamic of these black branes are
investigated through the use of the Gibbs free energy. In order to do this, we
calculate the finite action by use of the counterterm method inspired by
AdS/CFT correspondence. Introducing a Smarr-type formula, we also show that the
conserved and thermodynamics quantities of these solutions satisfy the first
law of thermodynamics. Finally, we present the charged rotating black branes in
dimensions with rotation parameters and investigate their
thermodynamics.Comment: 16 pages, Late
Black Holes in (Quartic) Quasitopological Gravity
We construct quartic quasitopological gravity, a theory of gravity containing
terms quartic in the curvature that yields second order differential equations
in the spherically symmetric case. Up to a term proportional to the quartic
term in Lovelock gravity we find a unique solution for this quartic case, valid
in any dimensionality larger than 4 except 8. This case is the highest degree
of curvature coupling for which explicit black hole solutions can be
constructed, and we obtain and analyze the various black hole solutions that
emerge from the field equations in dimensions. We discuss the
thermodynamics of these black holes and compute their entropy as a function of
the horizon radius. We then make some general remarks about -th order
quasitopological gravity, and point out that the basic structure of the
solutions will be the same in any dimensionality for general apart from
particular cases.Comment: LaTex, 9 figures, 27 pages. A new section on holographic

Reissner-Nordstr\"om Black Holes in Quintic Quasi-topological Gravity
This paper presents a study on charged black holes in quintic
quasi-topological gravity, where we construct numerical solutions and
investigate their thermodynamics and conserved quantities. We verify the first
law of thermodynamics and compare our findings with that of Einstein gravity.
We examine the physical properties of the solutions, considering anti-de
Sitter, de Sitter, and flat solutions. Our analysis shows that anti-de Sitter
solutions exhibit thermal stability, whereas de Sitter and flat solutions do
not. Finally, we discuss the implications of our results and possible future
research directions.Comment: 27 pages, 9 Figure
