Surface terms of quartic quasitopological gravity and thermodynamics of nonlinear charged rotating black branes

Abstract: As in the case of Einstein or Lovelock gravity, the action of quartic quasitopological gravity has not a well-defined variational principle. In this paper, we first introduce a surface term that makes the variation of quartic quasitopological gravity well defined. Second, we present the static charged solutions of quartic quasitopological gravity in the presence of a non linear electromagnetic field. One of the branch of these solutions presents a black brane with one or two horizons or a naked singularity dep… Show more

“…This new gravitational theory provides a useful toy model to study a broader class of four (and higher) dimensional CFT's, involving three or more independent parameters [5]. Various aspects of pth-order quasi-topological terms which have at most second order derivatives of the metric in the field equations for spherically symmetric spacetimes in five and higher dimensions except 2p dimensions have been investigated [6][7][8][9]. Nowadays, it is a general belief that there is a profound connection between the gravitational field equations and the laws of thermodynamics.…”

Black hole spacetimes in higher order quasi-topological gravity which have at most second order derivatives of the metric in the field equations, have been explored and their thermodynamics have been investigated [19][20][21][22].…”
