In this paper, a complete analysis of symmetries and conservation laws for the charged squashed Kaluza--Klein black hole spacetime in a Riemannian space is discussed. First, a comprehensive group analysis of the underlying space-time metric using Lie point symmetries are presented and then it the $n$-dimensional optima…

We consider Riemannian 4-manifolds $(X,g_X)$ with a Spin^c-structure and a suitable circle bundle $Y$ over $X$ such that the Spin^c-structure on $X$ lifts to a spin structure on $Y$. With respect to these structures a spinor $φ$ on $X$ lifts to an untwisted spinor $ψ$ on $Y$ and a U(1)-gauge field $A$ for the Spin^c-st…

The paper classifies helix curves on a pseudo-Riemannian surface.

We investigate the Kaluza-Klein reductions to ten dimensions of the purely gravitational half-BPS M-theory backgrounds: the M-wave and the Kaluza-Klein monopole. We determine the moduli space of smooth (supersymmetric) Kaluza-Klein reductions by classifying the freely-acting spacelike Killing vectors which preserve som…

This article studies the harmonicity of vector fields on Riemannian manifolds, viewed as maps into the tangent bundle equipped with a family of Riemannian metrics. Geometric and topological rigidity conditions are obtained, especially for surfaces and vector fields of constant norm, and existence is proved on two-tori.…

The theory of locally anisotropic superspaces (supersymmetric generalizations of various types of Kaluza--Klein, Lagrange and Finsler spaces) is laid down. In this framework we perform the analysis of construction of the supervector bundles provided with nonlinear and distinguished connections and metric structures. Tw…

New black hole solutions with lens space horizons in 5D Kaluza-Klein theory.

Equations of motion of low-energy string effective actions can be conveniently described in terms of generalized geometry and Levi-Civita connections on Courant algebroids. This approach is used to propose and prove a suitable version of the Kaluza-Klein-like reduction. Necessary geometrical tools are recalled.

The paper explores Kaluza-Klein theories without assuming a fibration structure.

The purpose of this work is to extend the formalism of stochastic calculus to the case of spaces with local anisotropy (modeled as vector bundles with compatible nonlinear and distinguished connections and metric structures and containing as particular cases different variants of Kaluza--Klein and generalized Lagrange …

We study topological T-duality for spaces with a semi-free $S^1-$action with isolated fixed points. Physically, these correspond to spacetimes containing Kaluza-Klein monopoles. We demonstrate that the physical dyonic coordinate of such spaces has an analogue in our formalism. By analogy with the Dirac monopole, we stu…

The paper extends Hawking--Page solutions to various spacetimes with singularities.

We consider the Einstein flow on a product manifold with one factor being a compact quotient of 3-dimensional hyperbolic space without boundary and the other factor being a flat torus of fixed arbitrary dimension. We consider initial data symmetric with respect to the toroidal directions. We obtain effective Einsteinia…

Many features of dimensional reduction schemes are determined by the breaking of higher dimensional general covariance associated with the selection of a particular subset of coordinates. By investigating residual covariance we introduce lower dimensional tensors --generalizing to one side Kaluza-Klein gauge fields and…

The …

Building on author's previous results in singular semi-Riemannian geometry and singular general relativity, the behavior of gauge theory at singularities is analyzed. The usual formulations of the field equations at singularities are accompanied by infinities which block the evolution equations, mainly because the metr…

By means of a Kaluza-Klein type argument we show that the Perelman's F-functional is the Einstein-Hilbert action in a space with extra ``phantom'' dimensions. In this way, we try to interpret some remarks of Perelman in the introduction and at the end of the first section in his first famous paper. As a consequence the…

We show that the recent work of Lee [23] implies existence of a large class of new singularity-free strictly static Lorentzian vacuum solutions of the Einstein equations with a negative cosmological constant. This holds in all space-time dimensions greater than or equal to four, and leads both to strictly static soluti…

The harmonic sections of the Kaluza-Klein model can be seen as a variant of harmonic maps with additional gauge symmetry. Geometrically, they are realized as sections of a fiber bundle associated to a principal bundle with a connection. In this paper, we investigate geometric and analytic aspects of a model that combin…

We consider differential operators acting on densities of arbitrary weights on manifold $M$ identifying pencils of such operators with operators on algebra of densities of all weights. This algebra can be identified with the special subalgebra of functions on extended manifold $\hat M$. On one hand there is a canonical…

We argue that G_2 manifolds for M-theory admitting string theory Calabi-Yau duals are fibered by coassociative submanifolds. Dual theories are constructed using the moduli space of M5-brane fibers as target space. Mirror symmetry and various string and M-theory dualities involving G_2 manifolds may be incorporated into…

Courant algebroids provide a useful mathematical tool (not only) in string theory. It is thus important to define and examine their morphisms. To some extent, this was done before using an analogue of canonical relations known from symplectic geometry. However, it turns out that applications in physics require a more g…

We consider type II string theory in space-time backgrounds which admit eight supercharges and can be characterized by the existence of an SU(3) x SU(3) structure. We show that the couplings of such backgrounds strongly resemble the couplings of four-dimensional N=2 supergravities and precisely coincide with the N=2 co…

Considering pseudo-Riemannian $g$-natural metrics on tangent bundles, we prove that the condition of being Ricci soliton is hereditary in the sense that a Ricci soliton structure on the tangent bundle gives rise to a Ricci soliton structure on the base manifold. Restricting ourselves to some class of pseudo-Riemannian …

Torsions, curvatures, structure equations and Bianchi identities for locally anisotropic superspaces (containing as particular cases different supersymmetric extensions and prolongations of Riemann, Finsler, Lagrange and Kaluza--Klein spaces) are investigated.

We prove positive mass theorem with angular momentum and charges for axially symmetric, simply connected, maximal, complete initial data sets with two ends, one designated asymptotically flat and the other either (Kaluza-Klein) asymptotically flat or asymptotically cylindrical, for 4-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory…

The theory of spinors is developed for locally anisotropic (la) spaces, in brief la-spaces, which in general are modeled as vector bundles provided with nonlinear and distinguished connections and metric structures (such la-spaces contain as particular cases the Lagrange, Finsler and, for trivial nonlinear connections,…

The classifications of holonomy groups in Lorentzian and in Euclidean signature are quite different. A group of interest in Lorentzian signature in n dimensions is the maximal proper subgroup of the Lorentz group, SIM(n-2). Ricci-flat metrics with SIM(2) holonomy were constructed by Kerr and Goldberg, and a single four…

We present a classification of one-parameter subgroups of isometries of anti de Sitter spaces, discuss the causal properties of their …

We show that the conformal Penrose limit is an ordinary plane wave limit in a higher dimensional framework which resolves the spacetime singularity. The higher dimensional framework is provided by Ricci-flat manifolds which are of the form M_D = M_d x B, where M_d is an Einstein spacetime that has a negative cosmologic…
