Solutions in the scalar-tensor theory with nonminimal derivative coupling

We present black hole type solutions in the scalar-tensor theory with nonminimal derivative coupling to the Einstein tensor. The effects of the nonminimal derivative coupling appear in the large scales, while the solutions approach those in the Einstein gravity in the small scales. For the particular coupling constant tuned to the inverse of the cosmological constant, the scalar field becomes trivial and the solutions in the Einstein gravity are recovered. For the other coupling constant, more general solutions can be obtained. If the two-dimensional maximally symmetric space is a two-sphere, the spacetime structure approaches anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime in the large scales. On the other hand, if the two-dimensional space is a two-hyperboloid, the spacetime approaches de Sitter spacetime. If it is a flat space, the cosmological constant affects only the amplitude of the scalar field. The extension to the higher-dimensional case is also straightforward. For a certain range of the negative cosmological constant, thermodynamic properties of a black hole are very similar to those of the Schwarzschild-AdS black hole in the Einstein gravity.
