Simple solutions to the Einstein Equations in spaces with unusual topology

Abstract

We discuss simple vacuum solutions to the Einstein Equations in five dimensional space-times compactified in two different ways. In such spaces, one black hole phase and more then one black string phase may exist. Several old metrics are adapted to new background topologies to yield new solutions to the Einstein Equations. We then briefly talk about the angular momentum they may carry, the horizon topology and phase transitions that may occur.
