We show that Lovelock black holes are stable under vector perturbations in all dimensions. However, we prove that small Lovelock black holes are unstable under tensor perturbations in even-dimensions and under scalar perturbations in odd-dimensions. Therefore, we can conclude that small Lovelock black holes are unstable in any dimensions. The instability is stronger on small scales and hence catastrophic in the sense that there is no smooth descendant.","authors_text":"Jiro Soda, Tomohiro Takahashi","cross_cats":["hep-ph","hep-th"],"headline":"","license":"http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/","primary_cat":"gr-qc","submitted_at":"2010-08-10T01:54:43Z","title":"Catastrophic Instability of Small Lovelock Black Holes"},"references":{"count":0,"internal_anchors":0,"resolved_work":0,"sample":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1008.1618","kind":"arxiv","version":2},"verdict":{"created_at":null,"id":null,"model_set":{},"one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"pith_extraction_headline":"","strongest_claim":"","weakest_assumption":""}},"verdict_id":null}}],"author_attestations":[],"timestamp_anchors":[],"storage_attestations":[],"citation_signatures":[],"replication_records":[],"corrections":[],"mirror_hints":[],"record_created":{"event_id":"sha256:f90a2b5c2528f752e044837f7fa30e2b5ec1bbba18ce292c0c43f09c471fe2e8","target":"record","created_at":"2026-05-18T04:30:12Z","signer":{"key_id":"pith-v1-2026-05","public_key_fingerprint":"8d4b5ee74e4693bcd1df2446408b0d54","signer_id":"pith.science","signer_type":"pith_registry"},"payload":{"attestation_state":"computed","canonical_record":{"metadata":{"abstract_canon_sha256":"cdadfeb44c5af7f827aabbe0d1c219f021a3e471c684eed212785269e44448a1","cross_cats_sorted":["hep-ph","hep-th"],"license":"http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/","primary_cat":"gr-qc","submitted_at":"2010-08-10T01:54:43Z","title_canon_sha256":"f5ce772e50cb735b4e48053cc18a2976af5bf6bd349d848f3bc1f6550b48cecf"},"schema_version":"1.0","source":{"id":"1008.1618","kind":"arxiv","version":2}},"canonical_sha256":"43a66020db882c2561f64b777a32a550a52d15072b488cee8874f9c19453cb43","receipt":{"algorithm":"ed25519","builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1","canonical_sha256":"43a66020db882c2561f64b777a32a550a52d15072b488cee8874f9c19453cb43","first_computed_at":"2026-05-18T04:30:12.371278Z","key_id":"pith-v1-2026-05","kind":"pith_receipt","last_reissued_at":"2026-05-18T04:30:12.371278Z","public_key_fingerprint":"8d4b5ee74e4693bcd1df2446408b0d54","receipt_version":"0.3","signature_b64":"jSe48QOitmacWLOaBz51aFdZcOLKkzw+9/Es2fcEKd3vvZ9SHfDTxzCf1GT5wiUlUo7TQIJ17PNxBcnmc/A3DQ==","signature_status":"signed_v1","signed_at":"2026-05-18T04:30:12.371892Z","signed_message":"canonical_sha256_bytes"},"source_id":"1008.1618","source_kind":"arxiv","source_version":2}}},"equivocations":[],"invalid_events":[],"applied_event_ids":["sha256:f90a2b5c2528f752e044837f7fa30e2b5ec1bbba18ce292c0c43f09c471fe2e8","sha256:8c50ee7e348d71c28c03fffb5db1948838d25d107734ebb7cb9dda2651768b26"],"state_sha256":"15fae369776208a46bacb0b4f5147fcc434c0518ae44d88b6833265945d9ffcd"}
