Derivation of Regularized Field Equations for the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet Theory in Four Dimensions
read the original abstract
We propose a regularization procedure for the novel Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory of gravity, which produces a set of field equations that can be written in closed form in four dimensions. Our method consists of introducing a counter term into the action, and does not rely on the embedding or compactification of any higher-dimensional spaces. This counterterm is sufficient to cancel the divergence in the action that would otherwise occur, and exactly reproduces the trace of the field equations of the original formulation of the theory. All other field equations display an extra scalar gravitational degree of freedom in the gravitational sector, in keeping with the requirements of Lovelock's theorem. We discuss issues concerning the equivalence between our new regularized theory and the original.

Static regular black holes in Horndeski theories: analytic no-go and nonanalytic obstructions
Analytic no-go theorems exclude static regular black holes with time-independent scalars in nondegenerate Horndeski theories; the unique marginal nonanalytic completion is the singular sGB chain.
