Abstract

We find the most general metric ansatz compatible with the results of Galloway and Graf \cite{GG} constraining asymptotically AdS2×S2AdS_2\times S^2 space-times (and a differentiability assumption), and then study its curvature subject to a variety of geometrical and physical restrictions. In particular we find explicit examples which are asymptotically AdS2×S2AdS_2\times S^2 metrics, in the sense of \cite{GG}, and which satisfy the Null Energy Condition but which differ from AdS2×S2AdS_2\times S^2.
