Symmetries in two-dimensional dilaton gravity with matter

Abstract

The symmetries of generic 2D dilaton models of gravity with (and without) matter are studied in some detail. It is shown that ${\delta }_2$, one of the symmetries of the matterless models, can be generalized to the case where matter fields of any kind are present. The general (classical) solution for some of these models, in particular those coupled to chiral matter, which generalizes the Vaidya solution of Einstein Gravity, is also given.

Minor changes have been made; the references have been updated and some added; 11 pages. To appear in Phys. Rev. D
