Linearisation of Universal Field Equations
The Universal Field Equations, recently constructed as examples of higher dimensional dynamical systems which admit an infinity of inequivalent Lagrangians are shown to be linearised by a Legendre transformation. This establishes the conjecture that these equations describe integrable systems. While this construction is implicit in general, there exists a large class of solutions for which an e...
متن کاملUniversal Field Equations with Covariant Solutions
Metric independent σ models are constructed. These are field theories which generalise the membrane idea to situations where the target space has fewer dimensions than the base manifold. Instead of reparametrisation invariance of the independent variables, one has invariance of solutions of the field equations under arbitrary functional redefinitions of the field quantities. Among the many inte...
متن کاملUniversal Field Equations with Reparametrisation Invariance
New reparametrisation invariant field equations are constructed which describe d-brane models in a space of d + 1 dimensions. These equations, like the recently discovered scalar field equations in d + 1 dimensions, are universal, in the sense that they can be derived from an infinity of inequivalent Lagrangians, but are nonetheless Lorentz (Euclidean) invariant. Moreover, they admit a hierarch...
متن کاملUniversal Field Equations for Metric–affine Theories of Gravity
We show that almost all metric–affine theories of gravity yield Einstein equations with a non–null cosmological constant Λ. Under certain circumstances and for any dimension, it is also possible to incorporate a Weyl vector field Wμ and therefore the presence of an anisotropy. The viability of these field equations is discussed in view of recent astrophysical observations.
متن کاملLinearization Stability of the Einstein Equations
1. Introduction. An important problem in general relativity is the question of whether or not a solution of the linearized Einstein field equations (relative to a given background solution) actually approximates to first order a curve of exact solutions to the nonlinear equations. Here we announce that under certain geometrical conditions on the background solution the problem can be answered a...
