Dilaton Black Holes with Electric Charge

Static spherically symmetric solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell gravity with the dilaton field are described. The solutions correspond to black holes and are generalizations of the previously known dilaton black hole solution. In addition to mass and electric charge these solutions are labeled by a new parameter, the dilaton charge of the black hole. Different effects of the dilaton charge on the geometry of space-time of such black holes are studied. It is shown that in most cases the scalar curvature is divergent at the horizons. Another feature of the dilaton black hole is that there is a finite interval of values of electric charge for which no black hole can exist.Comment: 20 pages, LaTeX file + 1 figure, CALT-68-1885.

Dynamical Compactification, Standard Cosmology and the Accelerating Universe

A cosmological model based on Kaluza-Klein theory is studied. A metric, in which the scale factor of the compact space evolves as an inverse power of the radius of the observable universe, is constructed. The Freedmann-Robertson-Walker equations of standard four-dimensional cosmology are obtained precisely. The pressure in our universe is an effective pressure expressed in terms of the components of the higher dimensional energy-momentum tensor. In particular, this effective pressure could be negative and might therefore explain the acceleration of our present universe. A special feature of this model is that, for a suitable choice of the parameters of the metric, the higher dimensional gravitational coupling constant could be negative.Comment: 11 pages, uses revte

Supersymmetric Moyal-Lax Representations

The super Moyal-Lax representation and the super Moyal momentum algebra are introduced and the properties of simple and extended supersymmetric integrable models are systematically investigated. It is shown that, much like in the bosonic cases, the super Moyal-Lax equation can be interpreted as a Hamiltonian equation and can be derived from an action. Similarly, we show that the parameter of non-commutativity, in this case, is related to the central charge of the second Hamiltonian structure of the system. The super Moyal-Lax description allows us to go to the dispersionless limit of these models in a singular limit and we discuss some of the properties of such systems.Comment: 16 page

General analysis of self-dual solutions for the Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory in (1+2) dimensions

The solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory are studied in (1+2) dimensions with the self-duality condition imposed on the Maxwell field. We give a closed form of the general solution which is determined by a single function having the physical meaning of the quasilocal angular momentum of the solution. This function completely determines the geometry of spacetime, also providing the direct computation of the conserved total mass and angular momentum of the configurations.Comment: 3 pages, REVTEX file, no figure

Multidimensional integrable vacuum cosmology with two curvatures

The vacuum cosmological model on the manifold $R \times M_1 \times \ldots \times M_n$ describing the evolution of $n$ Einstein spaces of non-zero curvatures is considered. For $n = 2$ the Einstein equations are reduced to the Abel (ordinary differential) equation and solved, when $(N_1 =$dim $M_1, N_2 =$ dim$M_2) = (6,3), (5,5), (8,2)$. The Kasner-like behaviour of the solutions near the singularity $t_s \to +0$ is considered ($t_s$ is synchronous time). The exceptional ("Milne-type") solutions are obtained for arbitrary $n$. For $n=2$ these solutions are attractors for other ones, when $t_s \to + \infty$. For dim $M = 10, 11$ and $3 \leq n \leq 5$ certain two-parametric families of solutions are obtained from $n=2$ ones using "curvature-splitting" trick. In the case $n=2$, $(N_1, N_2)= (6,3)$ a family of non-singular solutions with the topology $R^7 \times M_2$ is found.Comment: 21 pages, LaTex. 5 figures are available upon request (hard copy).

No Black Hole Theorem in Three-Dimensional Gravity

A common property of known black hole solutions in (2+1)-dimensional gravity is that they require a negative cosmological constant. In this letter, it is shown that a (2+1)-dimensional gravity theory which satisfies the dominant energy condition forbids the existence of a black hole to explain the above situation.Comment: 3 pages, no figures, to be published in Physical Review Letter

Integration of D-dimensional 2-factor spaces cosmological models by reducing to the generalized Emden-Fowler equation

The D-dimensional cosmological model on the manifold $M = R \times M_{1} \times M_{2}$ describing the evolution of 2 Einsteinian factor spaces, $M_1$ and $M_2$, in the presence of multicomponent perfect fluid source is considered. The barotropic equation of state for mass-energy densities and the pressures of the components is assumed in each space. When the number of the non Ricci-flat factor spaces and the number of the perfect fluid components are both equal to 2, the Einstein equations for the model are reduced to the generalized Emden-Fowler (second-order ordinary differential) equation, which has been recently investigated by Zaitsev and Polyanin within discrete-group analysis. Using the integrable classes of this equation one generates the integrable cosmological models. The corresponding metrics are presented. The method is demonstrated for the special model with Ricci-flat spaces $M_1,M_2$ and the 2-component perfect fluid source.Comment: LaTeX file, no figure

Toda chains with type A_m Lie algebra for multidimensional m-component perfect fluid cosmology

We consider a D-dimensional cosmological model describing an evolution of Ricci-flat factor spaces, M_1,...M_n (n > 2), in the presence of an m-component perfect fluid source (n > m > 1). We find characteristic vectors, related to the matter constants in the barotropic equations of state for fluid components of all factor spaces. We show that, in the case where we can interpret these vectors as the root vectors of a Lie algebra of Cartan type A_m=sl(m+1,C), the model reduces to the classical open m-body Toda chain. Using an elegant technique by Anderson (J. Math. Phys. 37 (1996) 1349) for solving this system, we integrate the Einstein equations for the model and present the metric in a Kasner-like form.Comment: LaTeX, 2 ps figure

Einstein-Yang-Mills Theory with a Massive Dilaton and Axion: String-Inspired Regular and Black Hole Solutions

We study the classical theory of a non-Abelian gauge field (gauge group $SU(2)$) coupled to a massive dilaton, massive axion and Einstein gravity. The theory is inspired by the bosonic part of the low-energy heterotic string action for a general Yang-Mills field, which we consider to leading order after compactification to $(3+1)$ dimensions. We impose the condition that spacetime be static and spherically symmetric, and we introduce masses via a dilaton-axion potential associated with supersymmetry (SUSY)-breaking by gaugino condensation in the hidden sector. In the course of describing the possible non-Abelian solutions of the simplified theory, we consider in detail two candidates: a massive dilaton coupled to a purely magnetic Yang-Mills field, and a massive axion field coupled to a non-Abelian dyonic configuration, in which the electric and magnetic fields decay too rapidly to correspond to any global gauge charge. We discuss the feasibility of solutions with and without a nontrivial dilaton for the latter case, and present numerical regular and black hole solutions for the former.Comment: 44 page
