Phys. Rev. D 70, 104014 (2004) [7 pages]Exact solutions of Lovelock-Born-Infeld black holesReceived 24 August 2004; published 11 November 2004 The exact five-dimensional charged black hole solution in Lovelock gravity coupled to Born-Infeld electrodynamics is presented. This solution interpolates between the Hoffmann black hole for the Einstein-Born-Infeld theory and other solutions in the Lovelock theory previously studied in the literature. It is shown how the conical singularity of the metric around the origin can be removed by a proper choice of the black hole parameters. The differences existing with the Reissner-Nordström black holes are discussed. In particular, we show the existence of charged black holes with a unique horizon. © 2004 The American Physical Society URL:
