Vertex Operator Solutions of 2d Dimensionally Reduced Gravity

arXiv:solv-int/9902017 · doi:10.1007/s002200050776

Abstract

We apply algebraic and vertex operator techniques to solve two dimensional reduced vacuum Einstein's equations. This leads to explicit expressions for the coefficients of metrics solutions of the vacuum equations as ratios of determinants. No quadratures are left. These formulas rely on the identification of dual pairs of vertex operators corresponding to dual metrics related by the Kramer-Neugebauer symmetry.
