On Symmetries and Exact Solutions of Einstein Vacuum Equations for Axially Symmetric Gravitational Fields

چکیده
Einstein vacuum equations, that is a system of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) are derived from Weyl metric by using relation between Einstein tensor and metric tensor. The symmetries of Einstein vacuum equations for static axisymmetric gravitational fields are obtained using the Lie classical method. We have examined the optimal system of vector fields which is further used to reduce nonlinear PDE to nonlinear ordinary differential equation (ODE). Some exact solutions of Einstein vacuum equations in general relativity are also obtained. Keywords—Gravitational fields, Lie Classical method, Exact solutions.

Remarks on Papapetrou Class of Vacuum Solutions of Einstein Equations
Class of axially symmetric solutions of vacuum Einstein field equations including the Papapetrou solution as particular case has been found. It has been shown that the derived solution describes the external axial symmetric gravitational field of the source with nonvanishing mass. The general solution is obtained for this class of functions. As an example of physical application, the spacetime ...

متن کاملExact hypersurface-homogeneous solutions in cosmology and astrophysics.
A framework is introduced which explains the existence and similarities of most exact solutions of the Einstein equations with a wide range of sources for the class of hypersurface-homogeneous spacetimes which admit a Hamiltonian formulation. This class includes the spatially homogeneous cosmological models and the astrophysically interesting static spherically symmetric models as well as the s...
متن کاملGravitational fields with a non Abelian bidimensional Lie algebra of symmetries
Vacuum gravitational fields invariant for a bidimensional non Abelian Lie algebra of Killing fields, are explicitly described. They are parameterized either by solutions of a transcendental equation (the tortoise equation) or by solutions of a linear second order differential equation on the plane. Gravitational fields determined via the tortoise equation, are invariant for a 3-dimensional Lie ...
متن کاملClassification of Generalized Symmetries for the Vacuum Einstein Equations
A generalized symmetry of a system of differential equations is an infinitesimal transformation depending locally upon the fields and their derivatives which carries solutions to solutions. We classify all generalized symmetries of the vacuum Einstein equations in four spacetime dimensions. To begin, we analyze symmetries that can be built from the metric, curvature, and covariant derivatives o...
