In this paper we present a class of higher derivative theories of gravity which admit Birkhoff's theorem. In particular, we explicitly show that in this class of theories, although generically the field equations are of fourth order, under spherical (plane or hyperbolic) symmetry, all the field equations reduce to second order and have exactly the same or similar structure to those of Lovelock theories, depending on the spacetime dimensions and the order of the Lagrangian.

Dynamical Formation of Regular Black Holes
In quasi-topological gravity, a collapsing thin shell bounces at small radius, producing a regular, geodesically complete black hole instead of a singularity.

Regular black holes from thin-shell collapse
In D≥5 pure gravity with an infinite tower of higher-curvature terms, spherical thin-shell collapse generically produces regular black holes that bounce into new universes.

Regular black holes inspired by quasi-topological gravity
A new family of 2D dilaton-gravity models produces exact, regular black hole metrics whose curvature obeys a universal scaling law and a linear master equation.
