In regularized 4-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (EGB) gravity derived from a Kaluza-Klein reduction of higher-dimensional EGB theory, we study the existence and stability of black hole (BH) solutions on a static and spherically symmetric background. We show that asymptotically-flat hairy BH solutions realized for a spatially-flat maximally symmetric internal space are unstable against linear perturbations for any rescaled GB coupling constant. This instability is present for the angular propagation of even-parity perturbations both in the vicinity of an event horizon and at spatial infinity. There is also a strong coupling problem associated with the kinetic term of even-parity perturbations vanishing everywhere.

  1. Static regular black holes in Horndeski theories: analytic no-go and nonanalytic obstructions

    gr-qc 2026-07 accept novelty 7.0

    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.
