Spherically symmetric solutions of generic gravitational models are optimally, and legitimately, obtained by expressing the action in terms of the two surviving metric components. This shortcut is not to be overdone, however: a one-function ansatz invalidates it, as illustrated by the incorrect solutions of [1].

  1. Thermodynamics of Chern-Simons AdS$_5$ black holes coupled to $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ solitons

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Chern-Simons AdS5 black holes with SU(2) solitons have entropy that receives nontrivial contributions from axial torsion and trace-torsion modes, confirmed by multiple methods.
