Charged black holes in quartic quasi-topological gravity

In this paper, we construct exact solutions of charged black holes in the presence of quartic quasi-topological gravity. We obtain thermodynamics and conserved quantities of the solutions and check the first law of thermodynamics. In studying the physical properties of the solutions, we consider anti–de Sitter, de Sitter, and flat solutions of charged black holes in quartic quasi-topological gravity and compare them with Einstein and third-order quasi-topological gravities. We also investigate the thermal stability of the solutions and show that thermal stability is just for anti–de Sitter solutions, not for de Sitter and flat ones.
