Asymptotic singular behaviour of inhomogeneous cosmologies in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton-axion theory

We present the study of exact inhomogeneous cosmological solutions to a four-dimensional low energy limit of string theory containing non-minimal interacting electromagnetic, dilaton and axion fields. We analyze Einstein-Rosen solutions of Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton-axion equations and show, by explicitly taken the asymptotic limits, that they have asymptotically velocity-term dominated (AVTD) singularities.

Is there a prescribed parameter's space for the adiabatic geometric phase?

The Aharonov-Anandan and Berry phases are determined for the cyclic motions of a non-relativistic charged spinless particle evolving in the superposition of the fields produced by a Penning trap and a rotating magnetic field. Discussion about the selection of the parameter's space and the relationship between the Berry phase and the symmetry of the binding potential is given.

Stability of nonlinear magnetic black holes

We study the stability of static spherically symmetric exact solutions of Einstein equations coupled with nonlinear electrodynamics, in the magnetic sector. These solutions satisfy the heuristic model proposed by Ashtekar-Corichi-Sudarsky for hairy black holes, meaning that the horizon mass is related to their Arnowitt-Deser-Misner (ADM) mass and to the corresponding particle-like solution. We test the unstability conjecture that emerges for hairy black holes and it turned out that it becomes confirmed except for the Einstein-Born-Infeld solutions.

Singularity-free Bianchi spaces with nonlinear electrodynamics

In this paper we present an analysis to determine the existence of singularities in spatially homogeneous anisotropic universes filled with nonlinear electromagnetic radiation. These spaces are conformal to Bianchi spaces admitting a three parameter group of motions G$_3$. For these models we study geodesic completeness. It is shown that with nonlinear electromagnetic field some of the Bianchi spaces are geodesically complete, like G$_3$IX and G$_3$VIII; however, completeness depends on the curvature of the space. When certain topology is assumed, Bianchi G$_3$IX presents geodesics that are imprisoned. It is surprising that in the linear limit (Maxwell field) the spacetimes are singularity-free even if the curvature parameter is zero.

Smarr's formula for black holes with non-linear electrodynamics

It is known that for nonlinear electrodynamics the First Law of Black Hole Mechanics holds, however the Smarr's formula for the total mass does not. In this contribution we discuss the point and determine the corresponding expressions for the Bardeen black hole solution that represents a nonlinear magnetic monopole. The same is done for the regular black hole solution derived by Ayon-Beato and Garcia, showing that in the case that variations of the electric charge are involved, the Smarr's formula does not longer is valid.

Nonlinear electrodynamics in Bianchi spacetimes

We study the effects produced by nonlinear electrodynamics in spacetimes conformal to Bianchi metrics. In the presence of Born-Infeld type fields these models accelerate, expand and isotropize. This effect is compared with the corresponding to a linear electromagnetic field; it turns out that for the same geometry, Maxwell fields does not favour inflation as much as Born-Infeld field. The behavior of the nonlinear radiation is analyzed in terms of the equation of state. The energy conditions are analyzed as well, showing that the Born-Infeld field violates the strong energy condition.

Born-Infeld black hole in the isolated horizon framework

In this work we probe the Born-Infeld (BI) black hole in the isolated horizon framework. It turns out that the BI black hole is consistent with the heuristic model for colored black holes proposed by Ashtekar et al [(2001) Class.Quant.Grav. v. 18, 919-940]. The model points to the unstability of the BI black hole.

Born-Infeld generalization of the Reissner-Nordstrom black hole

In this work we study the trajectories of test particles in a geometry that is the nonlinear electromagnetic generalization of the Reissner-Nordstrom solution. The studied spacetime is a Einstein-Born-Infeld solution, nonsingular outside a regular event horizon and characterized by three parameters: mass $M$, charge $Q$ and the Born-Infeld parameter $b$ related to the magnitude of the electric field at the origin. Asymptotically it is a Reissner-Nordstrom solution

Born-Infeld Cosmologies

We present a model for an inhomogeneous and anisotropic early universe filled with a nonlinear electromagnetic field of Born-Infeld (BI) type. The effects of the BI field are compared with the linear case (Maxwell). Since the curvature invaria nts are well behaved then we conjecture that our model does not present an initial big bang singularity. The existence of the BI field modifies the curvature invariants at t=0 as well as sets bounds on the amplitude of the conformal metric function

Class of colliding plane waves in terms of Jacobi functions

We present a general class of noncolinear colliding wave solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations given in terms of fourth order polynomials, which in turn can be expressed through Jacobi functions depending on generalized advanced and retarded time coordinates. The solutions are characterized by six free parameters. The parameters can be chosen in such a way to avoid the generic focusing singularity

Colliding Plane Waves in Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton Fields

Within the metric structure endowed with two orthogonal space-like Killing vectors a class of solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton field equations is presented. Two explicitly given sub-classes of solutions bear an interpretation as colliding plane waves in the low-energy limit of the heterotic string theory.

Geodesic Motion in the 5D Magnetized Schwarzschild-Like Solutions

Geodesics for a 5D magnetized Schwarzschild-like solution are analyzed by reducing the problem to the motion of a test particle in an effective potential. In absence of magnetic field comparison is established with Schwarzschild's geometry. Embedding diagrams are constructed in order to visualize the geometry of the metric. The study performed here is also valid, when the electromagnetic interactions are neglected, for the low energy superstring theory and the Brans-Dicke theory.
