Static and spherically symmetric general relativity solutions in Minimal Theory of Bigravity

Abstract

We investigate static and spherically symmetric solutions in the Minimal Theory of Bigravity (MTBG). First, we show that a pair of Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetimes with different cosmological constants and black hole masses written in the spatially-flat Gullstrand-Painlevé (GP) coordinates is a solution in the self-accelerating branch of MTBG, while it cannot be a solution in the normal branch. We then illustrate how Schwarzschild-de Sitter solutions can become compatible with the normal branch when using different coordinates. We also confirm that the self-accelerating branch of MTBG admits static and spherically symmetric general relativity solutions with matter written in the spatially-flat coordinates, including neutron stars with arbitrary matter equations of state. Finally, we show that in the self-accelerating branch nontrivial solutions are given by the Schwarzschild-de Sitter metrics written in nonstandard coordinates.
