    New Black Hole Solutions with Axial Symmetry in Einstein-Yang-Mills Theory

    Full text link
    We construct new black hole solutions in Einstein-Yang-Mills theory. They are static, axially symmetric and asymptotically flat. They are characterized by their horizon radius and a pair of integers (k,n), where k is related to the polar angle and n to the azimuthal angle. The known spherically and axially symmetric EYM black holes have k=1. For k>1, pairs of new black hole solutions appear above a minimal value of n, that increases with k. Emerging from globally regular solutions, they form two branches, which merge and end at a maximal value of the horizon radius. The difference of their mass and their horizon mass equals the mass of the corresponding regular solution, as expected from the isolated horizon framework.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figure

    We construct regular and black hole solutions in SU(2) Einstein-Born-Infeld theory. These solutions have many features in common with the corresponding SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills solutions. In particular, sequences of neutral non-abelian solutions tend to magnetically charged limiting solutions, related to embedded abelian solutions. Thermodynamic properties of the black hole solutions are addressed.Comment: LaTeX, 14 pages, 6 postscript figures; typos corrected in reference

    Sequences of globally regular and black hole solutions in SU(4) Einstein-Yang-Mills theory

    Full text link
    SU(4) Einstein-Yang-Mills theory possesses sequences of static spherically symmetric globally regular and black hole solutions. Considering solutions with a purely magnetic gauge field, based on the 4-dimensional embedding of su(2)su(2) in su(4)su(4), these solutions are labelled by the node numbers (n1,n2,n3)(n_1,n_2,n_3) of the three gauge field functions u1u_1, u2u_2 and u3u_3. We classify the various types of solutions in sequences and determine their limiting solutions. The limiting solutions of the sequences of neutral solutions carry charge, and the limiting solutions of the sequences of charged solutions carry higher charge. For sequences of black hole solutions with node structure (n,j,n)(n,j,n) and (n,n,n)(n,n,n), several distinct branches of solutions exist up to critical values of the horizon radius. We determine the critical behaviour for these sequences of solutions. We also consider SU(4) Einstein-Yang-Mills-dilaton theory and show that these sequences of solutions are analogous in most respects to the corresponding SU(4) Einstein-Yang-Mills sequences of solutions.Comment: 40 pages, 5 tables, 19 Postscript figures, use revtex.st
