Spacetime symmetries generate stealth Proca vector fields on arbitrary backgrounds, enabling exact Proca-haired rotating black holes in all dimensions.
New class of exact rotating black holes with primary hair in 5D generalized Proca theory, generalizing Myers-Perry via Kerr-Schild form with light-like Proca field.
Einstein-vector-Gauss-Bonnet theory with quadratic coupling admits static charged spherical and uncharged magnetic-dipole vectorized black holes, plus a bounded domain of rotating solutions.
Neutron stars with primary scalar hair in a DHOST subfamily are more compact than GR predictions and develop singularities above a critical scalar charge threshold.
