On the existence of solutions to Einstein's equation with non-zero Bondi news

It is shown that theC-metric (with parameters chosen to lie in suitable intervals) admits a conformal completion such that the space of generators of null infinity, , is a 2-sphere. This structure of is both necessary and sufficient for the analysis of gravitational radiation in exact general relativity. Bondi news (as well as the electromagnetic radiation field, in the charget case) is examined and found to be non-zero. Thus the issue of existence of exact solutions to the Einstein (and Einstein-Maxwell) equations admitting radiation (in the sense of Bondi, Sachs, and Penrose) is resolved. In addition, the analysis clarifies the sense in which the vacuumC-metric represents the gravitational field of two accelerating black-holes.     

A new class of solutions to the WDVV equation

The known prepotential solutions F to the Witten-Dijkgraaf-Verlinde-Verlinde (WDVV) equation are parametrized by a set {α} of covectors. This set may be taken to be indecomposable, since . We couple mutually orthogonal covector sets by adding so-called radial terms to the standard form of F. The resulting reducible covector set yields a new type of irreducible solution to the WDVV equation.

Homothetic and conformal symmetries of solutions to Einstein's equations

We present several results about the nonexistence of solutions of Einstein's equations with homothetic or conformal symmetry. We show that the only spatially compact, globally hyperbolic spacetimes admitting a hypersurface of constant mean extrinsic curvature, and also admitting an infinitesimal proper homothetic symmetry, are everywhere locally flat; this assumes that the matter fields either obey certain energy conditions, or are the Yang-Mills or massless Klein-Gordon fields. We find that the only vacuum solutions admitting an infinitesimal proper conformal symmetry are everywhere locally flat spacetimes and certain plane wave solutions. We show that if the dominant energy condition is assumed, then Minkowski spacetime is the only asymptotically flat solution which has an infinitesimal conformal symmetry that is asymptotic to a dilation. In other words, with the exceptions cited, homothetic or conformal Killing fields are in fact Killing in spatially compact or asymptotically flat spactimes. In the conformal procedure for solving the initial value problem, we show that data with infinitesimal conformal symmetry evolves to a spacetime with full isometry.     

Some new exact solutions to the Burgers--Fisher equation and generalized Burgers--Fisher equation

Some new exact solutions of the Burgers--Fisher equation and generalized Burgers--Fisher equation have been obtained by using the first integral method. These solutions include exponential function solutions, singular solitary wave solutions and some more complex solutions whose figures are given in the article. The result shows that the first integral method is one of the most effective approaches to obtain the solutions of the nonlinear partial differential equations.     

Globally regular solutions of Einstein's equations

Non-radiative solutions of Einstein's equations for dust

The quasi-spherical collapsing space-time of Szekeres is investigated. The arbitrary functions can be chosen so that it has positive density, and no Killing vectors; yet a ballr<r ₀ of it can joined to the Schwarzschild metric, and is therefore non-radiative.

A class of stationary charged dust solutions of Einstein's field equations

We consider a special class of stationary rotating charged dust solutions of Einstein's field equations without cosmological constant. In these space-times, the motion of freely falling particles and of light rays can be visualized by the motion of charged particles in an appropriate model magnetic field. Any curl-free magnetostatic field, given on an open subset of Euclidean 3-space, can serve as a model magnetic field for a charged dust solution in this sense. The simplest example, corresponding to a homogeneous model magnetic field, is given by Som-Raychaudhuri space-time. Some other examples are worked out.     

On homogeneous solutions of Einstein's field equations

In the first part of this paper we describe a formalism capable of finding all homogeneous solutions of Einstein's field equations with any arbitrary energy-impulse tensor. In the second part we find all homogeneous vacuum solutions.     

Higher-dimensional vacuum solutions of Einstein's field equations

Some general solutions of the (general)D-dimensional vacuum Einstein field equations are obtained. The four-dimensional properties of matter are studied by investigating whether the higher-dimensional vacuum field equations reduce (formally) to Einstein's four-dimensional theory with matter. It is found that the solutions obtained give rise to an induced four-dimensional cosmological perfect fluid with a (physically reasonable) linear equation of state.     

A study of some exact solutions to Einstein's field equations which yield separable Hamilton-Jacobi equations

Exact solutions to Einstein's field equations, which give rise to a Stäckel-separable Hamilton-Jacobi equation of the form $$,y,z)\left[ {X(x)\left( {\frac{{\partial S}}{{\partial x}}} \right)^2 - 2\left( {\frac{{\partial S}}{{\partial x}}} \right)\left( {\frac{{\partial S}}{{\partial t}}} \right) - 2\left( {\frac{{\partial S}}{{\partial y}}} \right)\left( {\frac{{\partial S}}{{\partial t}}} \right) + Z(z)\left( {\frac{{\partial S}}{{\partial z}}} \right)^2 - 2\left( {\frac{{\partial S}}{{\partial z}}} \right)\left( {\frac{{\partial S}}{{\partial t}}} \right) - F(x,y,z)\left( {\frac{{\partial S}}{{\partial t}}} \right)^2 } \right] = \lambda $$ are considered. It is shown that there are no solutions for whichD is a function ofx orz, orx andz. The exact solutions are of Petrov typeN and are plane polarized waves without rotation. Some of the solutions are given explicitly, up to two arbitary functions. For these solutions the Hamilton-Jacobi equation is reduced to an uncoupled set of first-order ordinary differential equations.
