Non-polynomial quasi-topological gravity models reproduce the standard thermal history, generate dynamical dark energy of geometric origin, and fit supernova, cosmic chronometer, and BAO data competitively with ΛCDM.
Higher-order terms in an infinite tower of higher-derivative gravity regularize a 5D Proca-Maxwell system, creating frozen regular cores that mimic extremal black holes and satisfy all energy conditions.
All integrable 2D Horndeski theories (and thus many regular black-hole metrics) arise as spherical reductions of pure d≥4 gravities, which the paper terms quasi-topological.
Dynamical black-hole-to-white-hole transitions require a violation of the null convergence condition for the trapped region to disappear and the anti-trapped region to form.
An off-shell Hessian criterion H = S'_W(r_h) T'(r_h) governs thermodynamic stability of higher-curvature black holes, recovering the temperature-slope rule on physical branches and producing mean-field critical exponents.
A unified framework links the generating function for static black holes satisfying g_tt g_rr=-1 in extended quasi-topological gravity to thermodynamic mass and Wald entropy via an effective 2D dilaton theory.
A rotating regular black hole leaves a remnant because the correction term in the generalized entropy of Hawking radiation vanishes at a finite mass above the extremal limit.
Massive scalar quasinormal modes in quasi-topological black holes become long-lived as scalar mass grows, while photon-sphere radius, shadow size, and ISCO exhibit moderate deviations from Schwarzschild.

Regular Black Holes in Nonlocal Quasitopological Gravity
Infinite-derivative completions of quasitopological gravities are ghost-free, avoid strong coupling, and admit exact spherically symmetric vacuum regular black holes obeying a perturbative Birkhoff theorem.

Cosmologically viable non-polynomial quasi-topological gravity: explicit models, $\Lambda$CDM limit and observational constraints
Non-polynomial quasi-topological gravity models reproduce the standard thermal history, generate dynamical dark energy of geometric origin, and fit supernova, cosmic chronometer, and BAO data competitively with ΛCDM.

Proca-Maxwell System in an Infinite Tower of Higher-Derivative Gravity
Higher-order terms in an infinite tower of higher-derivative gravity regularize a 5D Proca-Maxwell system, creating frozen regular cores that mimic extremal black holes and satisfy all energy conditions.

All $2D$ generalised dilaton theories from $d\geq 4$ gravities
All integrable 2D Horndeski theories (and thus many regular black-hole metrics) arise as spherical reductions of pure d≥4 gravities, which the paper terms quasi-topological.

Null geodesic defocusing in dynamical black-hole-to-white-hole transitions
Dynamical black-hole-to-white-hole transitions require a violation of the null convergence condition for the trapped region to disappear and the anti-trapped region to form.

Off-shell Hessian thermodynamic stability of higher-curvature black holes
An off-shell Hessian criterion H = S'_W(r_h) T'(r_h) governs thermodynamic stability of higher-curvature black holes, recovering the temperature-slope rule on physical branches and producing mean-field critical exponents.

Long-lived quasinormal modes, shadows and particle motion in four-dimensional quasi-topological gravity
Massive scalar quasinormal modes in quasi-topological black holes become long-lived as scalar mass grows, while photon-sphere radius, shadow size, and ISCO exhibit moderate deviations from Schwarzschild.
