Stationary Einstein-Maxwell fields in arbitrary dimensions

چکیده
The Einstein-Maxwell equations in D-dimensions admitting (D−3) commuting Killing vector fields have been investigated. The existence of the electric, magnetic and twist potentials have been proved. The system is formulated as the harmonic map coupled to gravity on three-dimensional base space generalizing the Ernst system in the four-dimensional stationary Einstein-Maxwell theory. Some classes of the new exact solutions have been provided, which include the electro-magnetic generalization of the Myers-Perry solution, which describes the rotating black hole immersed in a magnetic universe, and the static charged black ring solution.

متن کاملConditions for nonexistence of static or stationary, Einstein-Maxwell, non-inheriting black-holes
We consider asymptotically-flat, static and stationary solutions of the Einstein equations representing Einstein-Maxwell space-times in which the Maxwell field is not constant along the Killing vector defining stationarity, so that the symmetry of the space-time is not inherited by the electromagnetic field. We find that static degenerate black hole solutions are not possible and, subject to st...
متن کاملRotating Black Holes in Higher Dimensions
The properties of higher-dimensional black holes can differ significantly from those of black holes in four dimensions, since neither the uniqueness theorem, nor the staticity theorem or the topological censorship theorem generalize to higher dimensions. We first discuss black holes of Einstein-Maxwell theory and Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory with spherical horizon topology. Here new typ...
متن کاملA universal inequality for axisymmetric and stationary black holes with surrounding matter in the Einstein-Maxwell theory
We prove that in Einstein-Maxwell theory the inequality (8πJ) + (4πQ) < A holds for any sub-extremal axisymmetric and stationary black hole with arbitrary surrounding matter. Here J,Q, and A are angular momentum, electric charge, and horizon area of the black hole, respectively.
