abstract

Recently, a novel $4D$ Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (EGB) gravity was formulated and a spherically symmetric black hole solution in this theory was derived by D. Glavan and C. Lin \cite{Glavan:2019inb}. In this paper, we study the geodesic motions in the background of the spherically symmetric black hole, by focusing on the innermost stable circular orbits (ISCO) for massive particle and photon sphere and shadow. Also, we find that a negative GB coupling constant is allowable in this theory, as in which case the singular behavior of the black hole can be hidden inside the event horizon. Moreover, we find that due to this extension a recently proposed universal bound on black hole size in \cite{Lu:2019zxb} can be broken.

  1. Novel extended inner shadow in images of Johannsen-Psaltis black holes with thin accretion disks

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    JP black holes with non-closed horizons produce an 'extended inner shadow' distinct from the ordinary inner shadow, and all image scales (inner shadow, photon ring, peak positions) grow monotonically with |ϵ3|.

  2. Thermodynamics and Shadows of Kerr black holes endowed with a global monopole charge

    gr-qc 2025-06 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    The authors derive shadow and thermodynamic quantities for a Kerr-like metric with a global monopole term in Δ, and claim EHT observations constrain the monopole charge α.

  3. Massive scalar field perturbations of 4D de Sitter Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet black holes

    gr-qc 2025-05 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Massive scalar perturbations of 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet de Sitter black holes are stable and show three quasinormal mode branches, including a non-perturbative de Sitter branch that disappears in the Schwarzschild-de...
