Some solutions of the Gauss-Bonnet Gravity with Scalar Field in Four Dimensions

چکیده
We give all exact solutions of the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet Field Equations coupled with a scalar field in four dimensions under certain assumptions. The main assumption we make in this work is to take the second covariant derivative of the coupling function proportional to the spacetime metric tensor. Although this assumption simplifies the field equations considerably, to obtain exact solutions we assume also that the spacetime metric is conformally flat. Then we obtain a class of exact solutions.

متن کاملLocalized Gravity and Higher Curvature Terms
We consider localization of gravity in smooth domain wall solutions of gravity coupled to a scalar field with a generic potential in the presence of the Gauss-Bonnet term. We discuss conditions on the scalar potential such that domain wall solutions are non-singular. We point out that the presence of the Gauss-Bonnet term does not allow flat solutions with localized gravity that violate the wea...
متن کاملScalar-Tensor Gravity on a Gauss-Bonnet Brane World
The effective four-dimensional, linearised gravity for a brane world model with higher order curvature terms and a bulk scalar field is analysed. Large and small distance gravitational laws are derived. The model has a single brane embedded in a fivedimensional bulk spacetime, and the scalar field represents the dilaton or a moduli field. The quadratic, Gauss-Bonnet curvature term (and correspo...

We study the phase space of the spherically symmetric solutions of Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet system nonmin-imally coupled to a scalar field and show that in four dimensions the only regular black hole solutions are asymptotically flat.
متن کاملGauss-Bonnet Brane World Gravity with a Scalar Field
The effective four-dimensional, linearised gravity of a brane world model with one extra dimension and a single brane is analysed [1, 2]. The model includes higher order curvature terms (such as the Gauss-Bonnet term) and a conformally coupled scalar field. Large and small distance gravitational laws are derived. In contrast to the corresponding Einstein gravity models, it is possible to obtain...
