Abstract: We have constructed, numerically, both regular and black hole static solutions to the simplest possible gravitating Yang–Mills–Higgs (YMH) systems in 4 p spacetime dimensions. The YMH systems consist of 2 p th power curvature fields without a Higgs potential. The gravitational systems consist of the ‘Ricci scalar’ of the p th power of the Riemann curvature. In 4 spacetime dimensions this is the usual Einstein–YMH (EYMH) system studied in [1, 2], whose qualitative results we emulate exactly.
