Curvature invariants and lower dimensional black hole horizons

Abstract It is known that the event horizon of a black hole can often be identified from the zeroes of some curvature invariants. The situation in lower dimensions has not been thoroughly clarified. In this work we investigate both ($$2+1$$ 2+1 )- and ($$1+1$$ 1+1 )-dimensional black hole horizons o...
