Extended de Sitter Theory of Two Dimensional Gravitational Forces
We present a simple unifying gauge theoretical formulation of gravitational
theories in two dimensional spacetime. This formulation includes the effects of
a novel matter-gravity coupling which leads to an extended de Sitter symmetry
algebra on which the gauge theory is based. Contractions of this theory
encompass previously studied cases.Comment: 19pp, no figs., CTP 2228, UCONN-93-
Perturbations of global monopoles as a black hole's hair
We study the stability of a spherically symmetric black hole with a global
monopole hair. Asymptotically the spacetime is flat but has a deficit solid
angle which depends on the vacuum expectation value of the scalar field. When
the vacuum expectation value is larger than a certain critical value, this
spacetime has a cosmological event horizon. We investigate the stability of
these solutions against the spherical and polar perturbations and confirm that
the global monopole hair is stable in both cases. Although we consider some
particular modes in the polar case, our analysis suggests the conservation of
the "topological charge" in the presence of the event horizons and violation of
black hole no-hair conjecture in asymptotically non-flat spacetime.Comment: 11 pages, 2 figures, some descriptions were improve
