Symmetries of asymptotically flat 4 dimensional spacetimes at null infinity revisited
It is argued that the symmetry algebra of asymptotically flat spacetimes at null infinity in 4 dimensions should be taken as the semi-direct sum of supertranslations with infinitesimal local conformal transformations and not, as usually done, with the Lorentz algebra. As a consequence, two dimensional conformal field theory techniques will play as fundamental a role in this context of direct ph...
متن کاملThe Conformal Group SO(4, 2) and Robertson-Walker spacetimes
The Robertson-Walker spacetimes are conformally flat and so are conformally invariant under the action of the Lie group SO(4, 2), the conformal group of Minkowski spacetime. We find a local coordinate transformation allowing the Robertson-Walker metric to be written in a manifestly conformally flat form for all values of the curvature parameter k continuously and use this to obtain the conforma...
متن کاملA method for 2-dimensional inversion of gravity data
Applying 2D algorithms for inverting the potential field data is more useful and efficient than their 3D counterparts, whenever the geologic situation permits. This is because the computation time is less and modeling the subsurface is easier. In this paper we present a 2D inversion algorithm for interpreting gravity data by employing a set of constraints including minimum distance, smoothness,...
متن کاملWhat Are We Learning from 2 - Dimensional Conformal Models ? * )
Rational conformal field theories are reviewed from an (informal) axiomatic stand point. This approach sheds new light on the classification of conformal current algebra models. On the other hand, the study of 2D CFT gives rise to new questions in the general theory. We display as an example embeddings of local chiral algebras which are not of the Doplicher–Haag–Roberts type. The interrelation ...
متن کاملClassification of Higher Dimensional Spacetimes
We algebraically classify some higher dimensional spacetimes, including a number of vacuum solutions of the Einstein field equations which can represent higher dimensional black holes. We discuss some consequences of this work. E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected]
