چکیده

In general, geometries of Petrov type II do not admit symmetries in terms Killing vectors or spinors. We introduce a weaker form equations which solutions. particular, there is an analog the Penrose-Walker spinor. Some its properties, including associated conservation laws, are discussed. Perturbations Einstein complex scalar Debye potential yield solutions to linearized equations. The Weyl tensor shown be half N. remaining curvature component on algebraically special side reduced first order differential operator acting potential.

On the Existence of Radiation Gauges in Petrov type II spacetimes

The radiation gauges used by Chrzanowski (his IRG/ORG) for metric reconstruction in the Kerr spacetime seem to be over-specified. Their specification consists of five conditions: four, which we treat here as valid gauge conditions, plus an additional condition on the trace of the metric perturbation. In this work, we utilize a newly developed form of the perturbed Einstein equations to establis...

On the Geometry of PP-Wave Type Spacetimes

Global geometric properties of product manifolds M = M × R2, endowed with a metric type 〈·, ·〉 = 〈·, ·〉R + 2dudv + H(x, u)du 2 (where 〈·, ·〉R is a Riemannian metric on M and H : M × R → R a function), which generalize classical plane waves, are revisited. Our study covers causality (causal ladder, inexistence of horizons), geodesic completeness, geodesic connectedness and existence of conjugate...

Type II Einstein spacetimes in higher dimensions

This short note shows that many of the results derived by Pravda et al (Class. Quant. Grav. 24 4407-4428 ) for higher-dimensional Type D Einstein spacetimes can be generalized to all Einstein spacetimes admitting a multiple WAND; the main new result being the extension to include the Type II case. Examples of Type D Einstein spacetimes admitting non-geodesic multiple WANDs are given in all dime...

Transverse frames for Petrov type I spacetimes : a general algebraic procedure

We develop an algebraic procedure to rotate a general NewmanPenrose tetrad in a Petrov type I spacetime into a frame with Weyl scalars Ψ1 and Ψ3 equal to zero, assuming that initially all the Weyl scalars are non vanishing. The new frame highlights the physical properties of the spacetime. In particular, in a Petrov Type I spacetime, setting Ψ1 and Ψ3 to zero makes apparent the superposition of...
