abstract
We construct static, spherically symmetric black hole solutions in quasi-topological gravity (QTG) coupled to Born-Infeld nonlinear electrodynamics. Starting from the spherically reduced action, we derive closed-form expressions for the electric field, the nonlinear Lagrangian, and the metric function, the latter involving hypergeometric functions. We consider specific versions of QTG in which vacuum black holes are regular, and show that, for some of these models, charged black holes develop a curvature singularity at a finite radius in their interior. In contrast, in models such as a Born-Infeld-type QTG, charged black holes remain regular. In this case, however, the de Sitter core of the neutral solution is replaced by an anti-de Sitter core. We also discuss several limiting regimes of these solutions.

Generic 2D Horndeski theories arise from dimensional reduction of d≥4 gravities, yielding a Birkhoff theorem for quasi-topological gravities where static spherically symmetric solutions satisfy g_tt g_rr = -1 and are determined algebraically.
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.
