Exact solutions for gravitational collapse with a dilaton field in arbitrary dimensions

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2019-04-09 v2

Abstract

We present time-dependent analytic solutions to the Einstein equations coupled with a dilaton (scalar) field. The background geometry for the solutions is a product of an N-dimensional spherically symmetric space and a d-dimensional flat space. We discuss the global properties of the spacetime.
