    Bosonic string - Kaluza Klein theory exact solutions using 5D-6D dualities

    Get PDF
    We present the explicit formulae which allow to transform the general solution of the 6D Kaluza--Klein theory on a 3--torus into the special solution of the 6D bosonic string theory on a 3--torus as well as into the general solution of the 5D bosonic string theory on a 2--torus. We construct a new family of the extremal solutions of the 3D chiral equation for the SL(4,R)/SO(4) coset matrix and interpret it in terms of the component fields of these three duality related theories.Comment: 13 pages in LaTe

    Charging a Double Kerr Solution in 5D Einstein--Maxwell--Kalb--Ramond Theory

    We consider the low-energy effective action of the 5D Einstein-Maxwell-Kalb-Ramond theory. After compactifying this truncated model on a two-torus and switching off the U(1) vector fields of this theory, we recall a formulation of the resulting three-dimensional action as a double Ernst system coupled to gravity. Further, by applying the so-called normalized Harrison transformation on a generic solution of this double Ernst system we recover the U(1) vector field sector of the theory. Afterward, we compute the field content of the generated charged configuration for the special case when the starting Ernst potentials correspond to a pair of interacting Kerr black holes, obtaining in this way an exact field configuration of the 5D Einstein-Maxwell-Kalb-Ramond theory endowed with effective Coulomb and dipole terms with momenta. Some physical properties of this object are analyzed as well as the effect of the normalized Harrison transformation on the double Kerr seed solution.Comment: 15 pages in latex, revised versio
