Thick self-gravitating plane-symmetric domain walls
We investigate a self-gravitating thick domain wall for a λΦ potential. The system of scalar and Einstein equations admits two types of non-trivial solutions: domain wall solutions and false vacuum-de Sitter solutions. The existence and stability of these solutions depends on the strength of the gravitational interaction of the scalar field, which is characterized by the number ǫ. For ǫ ≪ 1, we...
متن کاملThick Domain Walls around a Black Hole
We discuss the gravitationally interacting system of a thick domain wall and a black hole. We numerically solve the scalar field equation in the Schwarzschild spacetime and obtain a sequence of static axi-symmetric solutions representing thick domain walls. We find that, for the walls near the horizon, the Nambu–Goto approximation is no longer valid.
متن کاملThick domain walls in a polynomial approximation.
Relativistic domain walls are studied in the framework of a polynomial approximation to the field interpolating between different vacua and forming the domain wall. In this approach we can calculate evolution of a core and of a width of the domain wall. In the single, cubic polynomial approximation used in this paper, the core obeys Nambu-Goto equation for a relativistic membrane. The width of ...
متن کاملDomain Walls and Spaces of Special Holonomy
We review the relations between a family of domain-wall solutions to M-theory and gravitational instantons with special holonomy. When oxidized into the maximal-dimension parent supergravity, the transverse spaces of these domain walls become cohomogeneity-one spaces with generalized Heisenberg symmetries and a homoth-etic conformal symmetry. These metrics may also be obtained as scaling limits...
متن کاملMedian Spaces and Spaces with Measured Walls
We prove the existence of a close connection between spaces with measured walls and median metric spaces. In particular we show that some spaces with measured walls (e.g. real hyperbolic spaces) embed into median metric spaces which are at finite Hausdorff distance from their embedded image. We also relate properties (T) and Haagerup (a-T-menability) to actions on median spaces and on spaces wi...
