A Classical Instability of Reissner-Nordstrom Solutions and the Fate of Magnetically Charged Black Holes
read the original abstract
Working in the context of spontaneously broken gauge theories, we show that the magnetically charged Reissner-Nordstrom solution develops a classical instability if the horizon is sufficiently small. This instability has significant implications for the evolution of a magnetically charged black hole. In particular, it leads to the possibility that such a hole could evaporate completely, leaving in its place a nonsingular magnetic monopole.

Stable colored black holes with quartic self-interactions
Analytic proof that branch I of non-Abelian black holes with quartic interactions is linearly stable while branch II is unstable, based on the sign of the effective potential in even and odd perturbation sectors.
