The fate of horizons under quantum corrections

Abstract In this paper, we study the physical effects of deforming the usual Einstein-Hilbert lagrangian with the Goroff-Sagnotti counterterm (the first which is nonvanishing on shell). Only spherically symmetric solutions are discussed. The facts that Schwarzschild's spacetime is not a solutio...

Summary:Abstract In this paper, we study the physical effects of deforming the usual Einstein-Hilbert lagrangian with the Goroff-Sagnotti counterterm (the first which is nonvanishing on shell). Only spherically symmetric solutions are discussed. The facts that Schwarzschild's spacetime is not a solution to the corresponding equations of motion and Birkhoff's theorem validity are analyzed and some consequences worked out.
