We construct a two-dimensional action that is an extension of spherically symmetric Einstein-Lanczos-Lovelock gravity. The action contains arbitrary functions of the areal radius and the norm squared of its gradient, but the field equations are second order and obey Birkhoff's theorem. In complete analogy with spherically symmetric Einstein-Lanczos-Lovelock gravity, the field equations admit the generalized Misner-Sharp mass as the first integral that determines the form of the vacuum solution. The arbitrary functions in the action allow for vacuum solutions that describe a larger class of interesting nonsingular black-hole spacetimes than previously available.

  1. Cosmic Inflation From Regular Black Holes

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Regular black holes in the bulk of quasi-topological gravity drive a de Sitter inflationary phase on the brane at small scales, with e-fold number set by the ratio of black hole radius to higher-curvature scale.
