Aspects of hairy black holes in spontaneously broken Einstein-Yang-Mills systems: Stability analysis and entropy considerations

Spherically Symmetric Scalar Hair for Charged Black Holes

The no-hair theorem by Mayo and Bekenstein states that there exists no nonextremal static and spherical charged black hole endowed with hair in the form of a charged scalar field with a self-interaction potential. In our recent work [Phys. Lett. B 803, 135324 (2020)PYLBAJ0370-2693], we showed that the effect of a scalar mass term is important at an asymptotic infinity, which was omitted to prove the no-hair theorem. In this Letter, we demonstrate that there actually exists static and spherical charged scalar hair, dubbed as Q hair, around charged black holes, by taking into account the backreaction to the metric and gauge field. We also discuss that Q cloud, which is constructed without the backreaction around a Reissner-Nordström black hole, is a good approximation to Q hair under a certain limit.

Spatially compact solutions and stabilization in Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs theories

New solutions to the static, spherically symmetric Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs equations with the Higgs field in the triplet (doublet) representation are presented. They form continuous families parametrized by alpha = M(W)/M(Pl) [M(W) (M(Pl)) denoting the W boson (the Planck) mass]. The corresponding space-times are regular and have spatially compact sections. A particularly interesting class with the Yang-Mills amplitude being nodeless is exhibited and is shown to be linearly stable with respect to spherically symmetric perturbations. For some solutions with nodes of the Yang-Mills amplitude a new stabilization phenomenon is found, according to which their unstable modes disappear as alpha increases (for the triplet) or decreases (for the doublet).
