Gravitational field of global monopole within the Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld theory of gravity

Abstract Within the framework of the recent Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld (EiBI) theory we study gravitational field around an SO(3) global monopole. The solution also suffers from the deficit solid angle as in the Barriola-Vilenkin metric but shows a distinct feature that cannot be transformed awa...
