A New Class of Stable (2+1) Dimensional Thin Shell Wormhole

Few years ago, Bañados, Teitelboim and Zanelli (BTZ) (in Phys. Rev. Lett. 69:1849 (1992)) has discovered an explicit vacuum solution of (2+1)-dimensional gravity with negative cosmological constant. It has been argued that the existence of such physical systems with an event horizon and thermodynamic properties similar to (3+1) dimensional black holes. These vacuum solutions of (2+1)-dimensional gravity are asymptotically anti-de Sitter and are known as BTZ black holes. We provide a new type of thin-shell stable wormhole from the BTZ black holes. This is the first example of stable thin shell wormhole in (2+1)-dimension. Several characteristics of this thin-shell wormhole have been discussed.     

New principles for string/membrane unification

The target space theory of the N = (2,1) heterotic string may be interpreted as a theory of gravity coupled to matter in either 1 + 1 or 2 + 1 dimensions. Among the target space theories in 1 + 1 dimensions are the bosonic, type II, and heterotic string world-sheet field theories in a physical gauge. The (2 + 1)-dimensional version describes a consistent quantum theory of supermembranes in 10 + 1 dimensions. The unifying framework for all of these vacua is a theory of (2 + 2)-dimensional self-dual geometries embedded in 10 + 2 dimensions. There are also indications that the N = (2,1) string describes the strong-coupling dynamics of compactifications of critical string theories to two dimensions, and may lead to insights about the fundamental degrees of freedom of the theory.     

Symmetries of the Classical Integrable Systems and 2-Dimensional Quantum Gravity: a ‘Map’

Abstract

We draw attention to the connections recently established by others between the classical integrable KdV and KP hierarchies in 1 + 1 and 2 + 1 dimensions respectively and the matrix models which relate to the partition functions of 2-dimensional (1 + 1 dimensional) quantum gravity. The symmetries of the classical KP hierarchy in 2 + 1 dimensions are fundamental to this connection.     

Three-variable solution in the $$$$-dimensional null-surface formulation

The null-surface formulation of general relativity (NSF) describes gravity by using families of null surfaces instead of a spacetime metric. Despite the fact that the NSF is (to within a conformal factor) equivalent to general relativity, the equations of the NSF are exceptionally difficult to solve, even in 2+1 dimensions. The present paper gives the first exact \((2+1)\)-dimensional solution that depends nontrivially upon all three of the NSF’s intrinsic spacetime variables. The metric derived from this solution is shown to represent a spacetime whose source is a massless scalar field that satisfies the general relativistic wave equation and the Einstein equations with minimal coupling. The spacetime is identified as one of a family of \((2+1)\)-dimensional general relativistic spacetimes discovered by Cavaglià.     

Kerr–Schild metric in topological massive (2+1) gravity

In the framework of the (2+1)-dimensional topologically massive theory of gravity put forward by Deser, Jackiw, and Templeton, we analyze the (2+1) Kerr–Schild metric, in order to search for exact solutions, and to obtain plane-fronted wave solutions, which in the standard (2+1) Einstein theory (whose dynamics is provided by a cosmological constant term) do not exist.     

Study of Effective 2+1 Dimensional Gravity in Ferrofluid-Based Hyperbolic Metamaterials

Recent theoretical and experimental work demonstrated that nonlinear optics of ferrofluid-based hyperbolic metamaterials exhibit very unusual spatiotemporal dynamics. Here a detailed theoretical and experimental study of mutual interactions of individual self-focused optical filaments inside this metamaterial is reported. In agreement with theoretical expectations, the observed mutual interactions of individual filaments exhibit strong similarities with general relativity in 2+1 dimensions, which predicts that these interactions must have predominantly non-Newtonian topological character. This observation is important since 2+1-dimensional gravity is an exactly solvable theory even in the quantum gravity limit.     

Phantom Dilaton Field and Asymptotic Distribution Parameter in (2+1)-Dimensional Maxwell-Chern-Simons Gravity

The (2+1)-dimensional Maxwell-Chern-Simons gravity with phantom dilaton field coupling is studied in this paper.It is shown that black hole solution to exist when electromagnetic coupled to dilaton field in the non-trivial way.Moreover,asymptotic index and distribution parameter of current density are calculated by using black hole solution,some new features of this solution are briefly discussed.     

Even-dimensional topological gravity from Chern–Simons gravity

It is shown that the topological action for gravity in 2n  -dimensions can be obtained from the (2n+1)$(2n+1)$-dimensional Chern–Simons gravity genuinely invariant under the Poincaré group. The 2n  -dimensional topological gravity is described by the dynamics of the boundary of a (2n+1)$(2n+1)$-dimensional Chern–Simons gravity theory with suitable boundary conditions.     

Exact solutions of （3＋1）-dimensional nonlinear incompressible non-hydrostatic Boussinesq equations

The symmetries and the exact solutions of the (3+1)-dimensional nonlinear incompressible non-hydrostatic Boussinesq (INHB) equations, which describe atmospheric gravity waves, are studied in this paper. The calculation on symmetry shows that the equations are invariant under the Galilean transformations, the scaling transformations, and the space-time translations. Three types of symmetry reduction equations and similar solutions for the (3+1)-dimensional INHB equations are proposed. Traveling and non-traveling wave solutions of the INHB equations are demonstrated. The evolutions of the wind velocities in latitudinal, longitudinal, and vertical directions with space-time are demonstrated. The periodicity and the atmosphere viscosity are displayed in the (3+1)-dimensional INHB system.     

Notes on Multi-linear Variable Separation Approach

The multi-linear variable separation approach method is very useful to solve (2+1)-dimensional integrable systems. In this letter, we extend this method to solve (1+1)-dimensional Boiti system, (2+1)-dimensional Burgers system, (2+1)-dimensional breaking soliton system, and (2+1)-dimensional Maccari system. Some new exact solutions are obtained and the universal formula obtained from many (2+1)-dimensional systems is extended or modified.     

On （2＋1）-Dimensional Non-isospectral Toda Lattice Hierarchy and Integrable Coupling System

By considering （2＋1）-dimensional non-isospectral discrete zero curvature equation, the （2＋1）-dimensional non-isospectral Toda lattice hierarchy is constructed in this article. It follows that some reductions of the （2＋1）- dimensional Toda lattice hierarchy are given. Finally, the （2＋1）-dimensional integrable coupling system of the Toda lattice hierarchy is obtained through enlarging spectral problem.     

Variable Separation Approach to Solve Nonlinear Systems

The variable separation approach method is very useful to solving (2 1)-dimensional integrable systems.But the (1 1)-dimensional and (3 1)-dimensional nonlinear systems are considered very little. In this letter, we extend this method to (1 1) dimensions by taking the Redekopp system as a simp!e example and (3 1)-dimensional Burgers system. The exact solutions are much general because they include some arbitrary functions and the form of the (3 1)-dimensional universal formula obtained from many (2 1)-dimensional systems is extended.

From the Komar Mass and Entropic Force Scenarios to the Einstein Field Equations on the Ads Brane

By bearing the Komar’s definition for the mass, together with the entropic origin of gravity in mind, we find the Einstein field equations in (n + 1)-dimensional spacetime. Then, by reflecting the (4 + 1)-dimensional Einstein equations on the (3 + 1)-hypersurface, we get the Einstein equations onto the 3-brane. The corresponding energy conditions are also addressed. Since the higher dimensional considerations modify the Einstein field equations in the (3 + 1)-dimensions and thus the energy-momentum tensor, we get a relation for the Komar mass on the brane. In addition, the strongness of this relation compared with existing definition for the Komar mass on the brane is addressed.     

A (2+1)-Dimensional Integrable sinh-Gordon Extension

In this letter, we point out that if there is a (2+1)-dimensional extension of the KdV equation,then we can get a corresponding (2+1)-dimensional sine-Gordon (SG) or sinh-Gordon (SHG) extension which is related to the negative flow equation of the KdV extension. The (2+1)-dimensional SG (or SHG) extensions related to the KP, breaking soliton and Nizhnik-Novikov-Veselov equations are known in literature while the (2+1)-dimensional SHG extension related to the negative Aow equation of the Boiti-Leon-Manna-Pempinelli (BLMP) equation is obtained in this letter thanks to the Schwartz form of the BLMP equation being conformal invariant.     

Conservative Currents of Boundary Charges in AdS2+1 Gravity

The boundary charge which constitutes the Virasoro algebra in (2+1)-dimensional anti-de Sitter gravity is derived by Noether theorem and diffeomorphic invariance. It shows that the boundary charge under discussion recently exhausts all the available independent nontrivial charges. Therefore, for any specific spacetime, the state counting via the central charge of the Virasoro algebra is exact.     

A Corresponding Lie Algebra of a Reductive homogeneous Group and Its Applications

With the help of a Lie algebra of a reductive homogeneous space G/K, where G is a Lie group and K is a resulting isotropy group, we introduce a Lax pair for which an expanding(2+1)-dimensional integrable hierarchy is obtained by applying the binormial-residue representation(BRR) method, whose Hamiltonian structure is derived from the trace identity for deducing(2+1)-dimensional integrable hierarchies, which was proposed by Tu, et al. We further consider some reductions of the expanding integrable hierarchy obtained in the paper. The first reduction is just right the(2+1)-dimensional AKNS hierarchy, the second-type reduction reveals an integrable coupling of the(2+1)-dimensional AKNS equation(also called the Davey-Stewartson hierarchy), a kind of(2+1)-dimensional Schr¨odinger equation, which was once reobtained by Tu, Feng and Zhang. It is interesting that a new(2+1)-dimensional integrable nonlinear coupled equation is generated from the reduction of the part of the(2+1)-dimensional integrable coupling, which is further reduced to the standard(2+1)-dimensional diffusion equation along with a parameter. In addition, the well-known(1+1)-dimensional AKNS hierarchy, the(1+1)-dimensional nonlinear Schr¨odinger equation are all special cases of the(2+1)-dimensional expanding integrable hierarchy. Finally, we discuss a few discrete difference equations of the diffusion equation whose stabilities are analyzed by making use of the von Neumann condition and the Fourier method. Some numerical solutions of a special stationary initial value problem of the(2+1)-dimensional diffusion equation are obtained and the resulting convergence and estimation formula are investigated.     

Existence of Multi-string Solutions of the Gauged Harmonic Map Model

The gauged harmonic map model is coupled with gravity in (2 + 1)-dimensional Minkowski space. We prove that the existence of finite energy solutions of the model for arbitrary location of strings for small gravitational constant. We also prove the energy is quantized, while the magnetic flux may assume any prescribed value in an open interval, and is not quantized.     

Spherically symmetric solution in higher-dimensional teleparallel equivalent of general relativity

A theory of(N+1)-dimensional gravity is developed on the basis of the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity(TEGR).The fundamental gravitational field variables are the(N+1)-dimensional vector fields,defined globally on a manifold M,and the gravitational field is attributed to the torsion.The form of Lagrangian density is quadratic in torsion tensor.We then give an exact five-dimensional spherically symmetric solution(Schwarzschild(4+1)-dimensions).Finally,we calculate energy and spatial momentum using gravitational energy-momentum tensor and superpotential 2-form.
