We extend Campbell-Magaard embedding theorem by proving that any n-dimensional semi-Riemannian manifold can be locally embedded in an (n+1)-dimensional Einstein space. We work out some examples of application of the theorem and discuss its…

According to the Campbell-Magaard theorem, any analytical spacetime can be locally and analytically embedded into a five-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian Ricci-flat manifold. We find explicitly this embedding for Godel's universe. The…

A little known theorem due to Campbell is employed to establish the local embedding of a wide class of 4-dimensional spacetimes in 5-dimensional Ricci-flat spaces. An embedding for the class of n-dimensional Einstein spaces is also found.…

Stated succinctly, the original version of the Campbell-Magaard theorem says that it is always possible to locally embed any solution of 4-dimensional general relativity in a 5-dimensional Ricci-flat manifold. We discuss the proof of this…

In this paper we investigate the problem of non-analytic embeddings of Lorentzian manifolds in Ricci-flat semi-Riemannian spaces. In order to do this, we first review some relevant results in the area, and then motivate both the…

In this work we perform a general study of properties of a class of locally symmetric embedded hypersurfaces in spacetimes admitting a $1+1+2$ spacetime decomposition. The hypersurfaces are given by specifying the form of the Ricci tensor…

Due to the growing interest in embeddings of space-time in higher-dimensional spaces we consider a specific type of embedding. After proving an inequality between intrinsically defined curvature invariants and the squared mean curvature, we…

We discuss the possibility of extending different versions of the Campbell-Magaard theorem, which have already been established in the context of semi-Riemannian geometry, to the context of Weyl's geometry. We show that some of the known…

Embedding theorems have continued to be a topic of interest in the general theory of relativity since these help connect the classical theory to higher-dimensional manifolds. This paper deals with spacetimes of embedding class one, i.e.,…

We employ a theorem due to Campbell to build some simple 4-dimensional cosmological models which originate from solutions describing waves propagating along the extra-dimension of a 5-dimensional Ricci-flat space. The dimensional reduction…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a semi-Riemannian manifold of arbitrary signature to be locally isometrically immersed into certain warped products. Then, we describe a way to use the structure equations of such immersions…

Let the warped product $M^n=L^m\times_\varphi F^{n-m}$, $n\geq m+3\geq 8$, of Riemannian manifolds be an Einstein manifold with Ricci curvature $\rho$ that admits an isometric immersion into Euclidean space with codimension two. Under the…

We revisit the Riemann-Cartan geometry in the context of recent higher-dimensional theories of spacetime. After introducing the concept of torsion in a modern geometrical language we present some results that represent extensions of…

It is shown that a space-time hypersurface of a 5-dimensional Ricci-flat space-time has its energy momentum tensor algebrically related to its extrinsic curvature and to the Riemann curvature of the embedding space. It is also seen that the…

We show that every analytic semi-Riemannian manifold can be isometrically embeddded into an Einstein maifold in co-dimension one.

This paper generalizes an earlier result by the author based on well-established embedding theorems that connect the classical theory of relativity to higher-dimensional spacetimes. In particular, an $n$-dimensional Riemannian space is said…

I show that all FRW models (four dimensional pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with maximally symmetric space) can be embedded in a flat Minkowski manifold with 5 dimensions. The pseudo Riemannian metric of space-time is induced by the flat…
