We have constructed, numerically, both regular and black hole static solutions to the simplest possible gravitating Yang–Mills–Higgs (YMH) systems in 4p spacetime dimensions. The YMH systems consist of 2p th power curvature fields without a Higgs potential. The gravitational systems consist of the 'Ricci scalar' of the pth 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.
