Decay of charged scalar field around a black hole: quasinormal modes of R-N, R-N-AdS and dilaton black holes

It is well known that the charged scalar perturbations of the Reissner-Nordstrom metric will decay slower at very late times than the neutral ones, thereby dominating in the late time signal. We show that at the stage of quasinormal ringing, on the contrary, the neutral perturbations will decay slower for RN, RNAdS and dilaton black holes. The QN frequencies of the nearly extreme RN black hole have the same imaginary parts (damping times) for charged and neutral perturbations. An explanation of this fact is not clear but, possibly, is connected with the Choptuik scaling.

Gauge symmetry breaking on orbifolds

We discuss a new method for gauge symmetry breaking in theories with one extra dimension compactified on the orbifold S^1/Z_2. If we assume that fields and their derivatives can jump at the orbifold fixed points, we can implement a generalized Scherk-Schwarz mechanism that breaks the gauge symmetry. We show that our model with discontinuous fields is equivalent to another with continuous but non periodic fields; in our scheme localized lagrangian terms for bulk fields appear.

Quasinormal modes of the electrically charged dilaton black hole

We sketch the results of calculations of the quasinormal frequencies of the electrically charged dilaton black hole. At the earlier phase of evaporation (Q is less than 0.7-0.8M), the dilaton black hole "rings" with the complex frequencies which differ negligibly from those of the Reissner-Nordstrom black hole. The spectrum of the frequencies weakly depends upon the dilaton coupling.

The generalized Casimir operator and tensor representations of groups

There has been proposed a new method of the constructing of the basic functions for spaces of tensor representations of the Lie groups with the help of the generalized Casimir operator. In the definition of the operator there were used the Lie derivatives instead of the corresponding infenitisemal operators. When introducing the generalized Casimir operator we use the metric for which a group being considered will be isometry that follows from the invariance condition for the generalized Casimir operator. This allows us to formulate the eigenvalue and eigenfunction problems correctly. The invariant projection operators have been constructed in order to separate irreducible components. The cases of the Bianchi type G^3 IX and G^3 II groups are considered as examples.

Split structures in general relativity and the Kaluza-Klein theories

We construct a general approach to decomposition of the tangent bundle of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds into direct sums of subbundles, and the associated decomposition of geometric objects. An invariant structure {\cal H}^r defined as a set of r projection operators is used to induce decomposition of the geometric objects into those of the corresponding subbundles. We define the main geometric objects characterizing decomposition. Invariant non-holonomic generalizations of the Gauss-Codazzi-Ricci's relations have been obtained. All the known types of decomposition (used in the theory of frames of reference, in the Hamiltonian formulation for gravity, in the Cauchy problem, in the theory of stationary spaces, and so on) follow from the present work as special cases when fixing a basis and dimensions of subbundles, and parameterization of a basis of decomposition. Various methods of decomposition have been applied here for the Unified Multidimensional Kaluza-Klein Theory and for relativistic configurations of a perfect fluid. Discussing an invariant form of the equations of motion we have found the invariant equilibrium conditions and their 3+1 decomposed form. The formulation of the conservation law for the curl has been obtained in the invariant form.
