In this work we examine the effective four-dimensional world that emanates from a general class of static spherical Ricci-flat solutions in Kaluza-Klein gravity in $D$-dimensions. By means of dimensional reduction we obtain a family of…
In four-dimensional general relativity the spacetime outside of an isolated spherical star is described by a unique line element, which is the Schwarzschild metric. As a consequence, the "gravitational" mass and the "inertial" mass of a…
We show that in a Randall-Sundrum II type braneworld, the vacuum exterior of a spherical star is not in general a Schwarzschild spacetime, but has radiative-type stresses induced by 5-dimensional graviton effects. Standard matching…
A striking characteristic of non-Schwarzschild vacuum exteriors is that they contain not only the total gravitational mass of the source, but also an {\it arbitrary} constant. In this work, we show that the constants appearing in the…
In General Relativity, Birkhoff's theorem asserts that any spherically symmetric vacuum solution must be static and asymptotically flat. In this paper, we study the validity of Birkhoff's theorem for a broad class of modified gravity…
We study possible static non-Schwarzschild exteriors for nonstatic spherically symmetric stars in a Randall $&$ Sundrum type II braneworld scenario. Thus, the vacuum region outside the surface of a star is assumed to be a static solution to…
In the five dimensional Kaluza Klein (KK) theory there is a well known class of static and electromagnetic--free KK--equations characterized by a naked singularity behavior, namely the Generalized Schwarzschild solution (GSS). We present…

The relativistic equations of hydrostatic equilibrium for a spherically symmetric star, or the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations are known in higher dimensions. In this paper, these equations have been expressed in terms of parameters of…
Consider a rotating and possibly pulsating "star" in (2+1) dimensions. If the star is axially symmetric, then in the vacuum region surrounding the star, (a region that we assume at most contains a cosmological constant), the Einstein…
Space-time is spherically symmetric if it admits the group of SO(3) as a group of isometries,with the group orbits spacelike two-surfaces. These orbits are necessarily two-surface of constant positive curavture. One commonly chooses…
We study the interior spacetimes of stars in the Palatini formalism of f(R) gravity and derive a generalized Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff and mass equation for a static, spherically symmetric star. We show that matching the interior solution…
The present work describes an immersion in 5D of the interior Schwarzschild solution of the general relativity equations. The model theory is defined in the context of a flat 5D space time matter Minkowski model, using a Tolman like…
We consider 5D spaces which admit the most symmetric 3D subspaces. 5D vacuum Einstein equations are constructed and 5D analog of the mass function is found. The corresponding conservation law leads to 5D analog of Birkhoff's theorem. Hence…
The spacetime around compact objects is an excellent place to study gravity in the strong, nonlinear, dynamical regime where solar system tests cannot account for the effects of large curvature. Understanding the dynamics of this spacetime…

We classify the existent Birkhoff-type theorems into four classes: First, in field theory, the theorem states the absence of helicity 0- and spin 0-parts of the gravitational field. Second, in relativistic astrophysics, it is the statement…
The existence of a simple spherically symmetric and static solution of the Einstein equations in the presence of a cosmological constant vanishing outside a definite value of the radial distance is investigated. A particular succession of…
