Abstract

This is a brief survey of the known black hole solutions in the theories of ghost-free bigravity and massive gravity. Various black holes exist in these theories, in particular those supporting a massive graviton hair. However, it seems that solutions which could be astrophysically relevant are the same as in General Relativity, or very close to them. Therefore, the no-hair conjecture essentially applies, and so it would be hard to detect the graviton mass by observing black holes.

Notes

  1. 1.

    It has recently been shown that these arguments can be circumvented for fine-tuned black hole mass and angular momentum [11]. This allows one to construct spinning hairy black holes which do not admit a static limit [12].
