A Class of Higher-Dimensional Solutions of Einstein's Vacuum Equation
arXiv:1808.09998
Abstract
A new class of higher-dimensional exact solutions of Einstein's vacuum equation is presented. These metrics are written in terms of the exponential of a symmetric matrix and when this matrix is diagonal the solution reduces to higher-dimensional generalizations of Kasner spacetime with a cosmological constant. On the other hand, the metrics attained when such matrix is non-diagonal have more intricate algebraic structures. Such solutions have not been presented in the literature yet.
