In this paper a Penrose limit is constructed for type IIB $AdS_6\times S^2\times \Sigma$ supergravity solutions. These solutions are dual to five dimensional SCFTs related to (p,q) five brane webs, which can often be described in terms of…
A broad class of higher dimensional instanton solutions are found for a theory which contains gravity, a scalar field and antisymmetric tensor fields of arbitrary rank. The metric used, a warp product of an arbitrary number of any compact…
We consider the Penrose limit of AdS$_7$ solutions of massive Type IIA supergravity. The resulting pp-wave geometry is supported by RR and NSNS fields. We quantize the Green--Schwarz superstring on the obtained pp-wave background, in the…
We present a noncommutative version of a plane-wave solution to the gravitational field equations. We start with a given classical solution, admittedly rather simple, and construct an algebra and a differential calculus which supports the…
We write out the explicit form of the metric for a linearized gravitational wave in the transverse-traceless gauge for any multipole, thus generalizing the well-known quadrupole solution of Teukolsky. The solution is derived using the…
For the quadratic theory of gravity with a scalar field, exact solutions are found for gravitational-wave models in Shapovalov~I~type spacetimes, which do not arise in models of the general theory of relativity. The theory of gravity under…
Starting with the curvature 2-form a recursive construction of totally antisymmetrised 2p-forms is introduced, to which we refer as p-Riemann tensors. Contraction of indices permits a corresponding generalisation of the Ricci tensor.…
Light waves carry along their own gravitational field; for simple plain electromagnetic waves the gravitational field takes the form of a pp-wave. I present the corresponding exact solution of the Einstein-Maxwell equations and discuss the…
A general type of localized excitations, folded solitary waves and foldons, are defined and studied both analytically and graphically. The folded solitary waves and foldons may be "folded" in quite complicated ways and possess quite rich…
The general theory of N=1 supergravity with supermatter is applied to a Bianchi type IX diagonal model. The supermatter is constituted by a complex scalar field and its spin-$1\over 2$ fermionic partners. The Lorentz invariant Ansatz for…
In this paper, we obtain dispersion relations corresponding to plane wave solutions in various Lorentz-breaking extensions of gravity with dimensions 3, 4, 5 and 6. We demonstrate that these dispersion relations display an usual…
A general framework for the solutions of the constraints of pure gravity is constructed. It provides with well defined mathematical criteria to classify their solutions in four classes. Complete families of solutions are obtained in some…
We find the most general supersymmetric solutions of ungauged N=1,d=4 supergravity coupled to an arbitrary number of vector and chiral supermultiplets, which turn out to be essentially pp-waves and strings. We also introduce magnetic…
Impulsive, non-diverging, Petrov-Segre type N gravitational wave solutions to a general massive three-dimensional gravity in the de Sitter, anti-de Sitter and flat Minkowski backgrounds are constructed in a unified manner by using the…
The aim of these notes is to give an accessible and self-contained introduction to the theory of gravitational waves as the theory of a relativistic symmetric tensor field in a Minkowski background spacetime. This is the approach of a…
We generalize the algorithm that establishes the correspondence between metric-affine Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld (EiBI) gravity and General Relativity (GR) to any bosonic matter sector. Along the way, a polished version of the proof of…
Several classes of self-similar, spherically symmetric solutions of relativistic wave equation with nonlinear term of the form sign(\phi) are presented. They are constructed from cubic polynomials in the scale invariant variable t/r. One…
In a class of generalized Einstein's gravity theories we derive the equations and general asymptotic solutions describing the evolution of the perturbed universe in unified forms. Our gravity theory considers general couplings between the…
We parametrize pp-wave spacetimes with compact codimension 2 hypersurfaces. In the vacuum case, we show that these spacetimes are locally in one-to-one correspondence with smooth curves of Riemannian Ricci-flat metrics modulo smooth curves…
We consider a system of quasilinear wave equations on the product space $\mathbb{R}^{1+3}\times \mathbb{S}^1$, which we want to see as a toy model for Einstein equations with additional compact dimensions. We show global existence for small…
