چکیده
Non-invariant solutions of the Boyer-Finley equation determine exact solutions of the Einstein field equations with only one rotational Killing vector. For the case of Euclidean signature such a metric was constructed by Calderbank and Tod. Recently Martina, Sheftel and Winternitz applied the method of group foliation to the Boyer-Finley equation and reproduced the Calderbank-Tod solution together with new solutions. We point out that in the case of ultra-hyperbolic signature there exist three inequivalent forms of metric. Only one of these can be obtained by analytic continuation from the Calderbank-Tod solution whereas the other two are new. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 35Q75, 83C15

The antecedent of Einstein field equations with Euclidean signature is the complex elliptic Monge-Ampère equation, CMA2. For elliptic CMA2 solutions determine hyper-Kähler, self-dual and therefore Ricci-flat metrics with Euclidean signature. We shall consider a symmetry reduction of CMA2 to solutions that admit only a single Killing vector. Systematic studies of vacuum metrics with one Killing ...
