Abstract

We obtain the Einstein-Maxwell equations for (2+1)-dimensional static space-time, which are invariant under the transformation q0=iq2,q2=iq0,αγq_0=i\,q_2,q_2=i\,q_0,\alpha \rightleftharpoons \gamma. It is shown that the magnetic solution obtained with the help of the procedure used in Ref.~\cite{Cataldo}, can be obtained from the static BTZ solution using an appropriate transformation. Superpositions of a perfect fluid and an electric or a magnetic field are separately studied and their corresponding solutions found.
