Higher-Dimensional Slowly Rotating Black Holes in Nonlinear Electrodynamics

We study slowly rotating, nonlinearly charged black holes in arbitrary spacetime dimension $d\ge 4$, using a generalized Lense–Thirring ansatz. Working to linear order in the rotation parameters, we solve the Einstein–nonlinear electrodynamics (NLE) field equations for restricted theories $\mathcal{L}(\mathcal{S})$ depending on single invariant. We provide an extension of the four-dimensional “No Go theorem” proven in ArXiv:2203.01919 and demonstrate the uniqueness of Maxwell theory in $d\ge 4$. Similar to four dimensions, it is proven that the standard rotation generating trick fails to produce full rotating solutions for any nontrivial NLE in higher dimensions. We identify a family of NLE theories admitting slowly rotating solutions with vector potentials encoding rotation effect in Maxwell-like manner; in four dimensions this reproduces the previously found RegMax theory, while in $d\ge 4$ we obtain the corresponding electric potential in closed form and the associated Lagrangian implicitly as a function of the radial coordinate.
