| contents | In this chapter, we discuss explicit black hole solutions in higher-order scalar-tensor theories. After a brief recap of no-hair theorems, we start our discussion by so-called stealth solutions present in theories with parity and shift symmetry. Stealth solutions are such that their metric are Ricci flat General Relativity solutions, but they are accompanied by a non-trivial scalar field, in both spherically-symmetric and rotating cases. The stealth metrics then enable to construct an analytic stationary solution of scalar-tensor theory which is called disformed Kerr metric. This solution constitutes a measurable departure from the usual Kerr geometry of GR. We discuss within parity and shift symmetric theories several non-stealth solutions. We then consider scalar-tensor theories stemming from a Kaluza-Klein reduction of a higher-dimensional Lovelock theory. These theories encompass all Horndeski functionals and hence go beyond parity and shift symmetry. Reduction and singular limits allow one to obtain non-stealth black holes with differing interesting properties which are not Ricci flat metrics. We analyse the solutions obtained and classify them with respect to the geometry of the internal space according to their Kaluza-Klein origin. |
