Rotating black holes in semiclassical gravity

Abstract: We present analytic stationary and axially-symmetric black hole solutions to the semiclassical Einstein equations that are sourced by the trace anomaly. We also find that the same spacetime geometry satisfies the field equations of a subset of Horndeski theories featuring a conformally coupled scalar field. We explore various properties of these solutions, and determine the domain of existence of black holes. These black holes display distinctive features, such as non-circularity, a non-spherically symmetric event horizon and violations of the Kerr bound.
