NUT wormholes

Gérard Clément, Dmitri Gal'tsov, Mourad Guenouche

We show that supercritically charged black holes with NUT provide a new setting for traversable wormholes. This does not require exotic matter, a price being the Misner string sing…

Rehabilitating space-times with NUTs

Gérard Clément, Dmitri Gal'tsov, Mourad Guenouche

We revisit the Taub-NUT solution of the Einstein equations without time periodicity condition, showing that the Misner string is still fully transparent for geodesics. In this case…

Quantized rotating Taub-bolt instantons

Gérard Clément, Dmitri Gal'tsov

We argue that previously suggested metrics for rotating Taub-bolt instantons do not satisfy all the necessary regularity conditions, and we present a family of new regular rotating…

Bertotti-Robinson and soliton string solutions of minimal supergravity

Adel Bouchareb, Chiang-Mei Chen, Gérard Clément +1

We report on a series of new solutions to five-dimensional minimal supergravity. Our method applies to space-times with two commuting Killing symmetries and consists in combining d…

Oxidation of D=3 cosets and Bonnor dualities in

Gérard Clément, Dmitri V. Gal'tsov

Bonnor's map in General Relativity is duality between (dimensionally reduced) vacuum gravity and static truncation of electro-vacuum theory. It was used as a tool to generate an ex…

All extremal instantons in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton-axion theory

Mustapha Azreg-Aïnou, Gérard Clément, Dmitri V. Gal'tsov

We construct explicitly all extremal instanton solutions to supergravity truncated to one vector field (Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton-axion (EMDA) theory). These…
