A static wormhole solution for gravity in vacuum is found for odd dimensions greater than four. In five dimensions the gravitational theory considered is described by the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet action where the coupling of the quadratic term…
A rigidity theorem that applies to smooth electrovac spacetimes which represent either (A) an asymptotically flat stationary black hole or (B) a cosmological spacetime with a compact Cauchy horizon ruled by closed null geodesics was given…
In this talk r-form fields in spacetimes of any dimension D are considered (r<D). The weak-field Newtonian-type limit of Einstein's equations, in general, with relativistic sources is studied in the static case yielding a revision of the…
We present a large family of twisting and expanding solutions to the Einstein-Maxwell equations of algebraic type D, for which the two double principal null directions (PNDs) of the Weyl tensor are not aligned with the null eigendirections…
We summarize recent results on $D$-dimensional Robinson-Trautman solutions of Einstein's gravity in the presence of a conformally invariant non-linear electromagnetic field and a cosmological constant. These spacetimes contain static dyonic…
We explicitly prove that the Weyl conformal symmetry solves the black hole singularity problem, otherwise unavoidable in a generally covariant local or non-local gravitational theory. Moreover, we yield explicit examples of local and…
We study type II universal metrics of the Lorentzian signature. These metrics simultaneously solve vacuum field equations of all theories of gravitation with the Lagrangian being a polynomial curvature invariant constructed from the metric,…
We obtain a characterization of the Kerr metric among stationary, asymptotically flat, vacuum spacetimes, which extends the characterization in terms of the Simon tensor (defined only in the manifold of trajectories) to the whole spacetime.…
We investigate thermodynamic behaviors of the $D$-dimensional gravity coupled to a dynamical unit timelike vector, the aether, present two kinds of exact charged solutions and study the linearized wave spectrum of this theory. There is an…
We present an axially symmetric, asymptotically flat empty space solution of the Einstein field equations containing a naked singularity. The spacetime is regular everywhere except on the symmetry axis where it possess a true curvature…
We study the foliation of a $D$-dimensional spherically symmetric black-hole spacetime with $D\ge 5$ by two kinds of one-parameter family of maximal hypersurfaces: a reflection-symmetric foliation with respect to the wormhole slot and a…
Previous work has found a higher-dimensional generalization of the "geodesic part" of the Goldberg-Sachs theorem. We investigate the generalization of the "shear-free part" of the theorem. A spacetime is defined to be algebraically special…
We explicitly exhibit n-1 constants of motion for geodesics in the general D-dimensional Kerr-NUT-AdS rotating black hole spacetime, arising from contractions of even powers of the 2-form obtained by contracting the geodesic velocity with…
We consider four (real or complex) dimensional hyper-K\"ahler metrics with a conformal symmetry K. The three-dimensional space of orbits of K is shown to have an Einstein-Weyl structure which admits a shear-free geodesics congruence for…
A family of spherically symmetric, static and self--dual Lorentzian wormholes is obtained in n--dimensional Einstein gravity. This class of solutions includes the n--dimensional versions of the Schwarzschild black hole and the…
General Relativity simplifies dramatically in the limit that the number of spacetime dimensions D is infinite: it reduces to a theory of non-interacting particles, of finite radius but vanishingly small cross sections, which do not emit nor…
Using asymptotic characterization results of spacetimes at conformal infinity, we prove that Kerr-Schild-de Sitter spacetimes are in one-to-one correspondence with spacetimes in the Kerr-de Sitter-like class with conformally flat…
We construct solutions of higher-dimensional Einstein gravity coupled to nonlinear $\sigma$-model with cosmological constant. The $\sigma$-model can be perceived as exterior configuration of a spontaneously-broken $SO(D-1)$ global…
We explore spacetime torsion in a two-dimensional setting, wherein it corresponds to a vector field. Without invoking field equations of a particular gravitational theory, we develop visualization techniques for such torsion fields,…
The aim of this work is to describe the complete family of non-expanding Plebanski-Demianski type D space-times and to present their possible interpretation. We explicitly express the most general form of such (electro)vacuum solutions with…
