## TL;DR

This paper calculates the shear viscosity to entropy density ratio for non-extremal Gauss-Bonnet black holes coupled with Born-Infeld electrodynamics, revealing corrections from the BI parameter and extending results to higher dimensions.

## Contribution

It provides an exact analytical computation of the viscosity to entropy ratio for these black holes, including BI corrections and generalization to D dimensions.

## Key findings

- Viscosity to entropy ratio receives BI parameter corrections.
- Analytical results are valid to all orders in the BI parameter.
- Results are extended to higher-dimensional spacetimes.

## Abstract

The ratio of the shear viscosity to the entropy density is calculated for non-extremal Gauss-Bonnet (GB) black holes coupled to Born-Infeld (BI) electrodynamics in $5$ dimensions. The result is found to get corrections from the BI parameter and is analytically exact upto all orders in this parameter. The computations are then extended to $D$ dimensions.
