The scalar perturbation of the higher-dimensional rotating black holes

The massless scalar field in the higher-dimensional Kerr black hole (Myers- Perry solution with a single rotation axis) has been investigated. It has been shown that the field equation is separable in arbitrary dimensions. The quasi-normal modes of the scalar field have been searched in five dimensions using the continued fraction method. The numerical result shows the evidence for the stability of the scalar perturbation of the five-dimensional Kerr black holes. The time scale of the resonant oscillation in the rapidly rotating black hole, in which case the horizon radius becomes small, is characterized by (black hole mass)^{1/2}(Planck mass)^{-3/2} rather than the light-crossing time of the horizon.

Thick domain walls around a black hole

We discuss the gravitationally interacting system of a thick domain wall and a black hole. We numerically solve the scalar field equation in the Schwarzschild spacetime and obtain a sequence of static axi-symmetric solutions representing thick domain walls. We find that, for the walls near the horizon, the Nambu--Goto approximation is no longer valid.

Hidden symmetry of the three-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell equations

It is shown how to generate three-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell fields from known ones in the presence of a hypersurface-orthogonal non-null Killing vector field. The continuous symmetry group is isomorphic to the Heisenberg group including the Harrison-type transformation. The symmetry of the Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton system is also studied and it is shown that there is the $SL(2,{\bf R})$ transformation between the Maxwell and the dilaton fields. This $SL(2,{\bf R})$ transformation is identified with the Geroch transformation of the four-dimensional vacuum Einstein equation in terms of the Kałuza-Klein mechanism.

Excitation of Kaluza-Klein modes of U(1) field by parametric resonance

In this paper, based on the theory of parametric resonance, we propose a cosmological criterion on ways of compactification: we rule out such a model of compactification that there exists a Kaluza-Klein mode satisfying $2m_{KK}=ω_b$, where $m_{KK}$ is mass of the Kaluza-Klein mode and $ω_b$ is the frequency of oscillation of the radius of the compact manifold on which extra dimensions are compactified. This is a restatement of the criterion proposed previously [S. Mukohyama, Phys. Rev. {\bf D57}, 6191 (1998)]. As an example, we consider a model of compactification by a sphere and investigate Kaluza-Klein modes of U(1) field. In this case the parametric resonance is so mild that the sphere model is not ruled out.

Thick Domain Walls Intersecting a Black Hole

We discuss the gravitationally interacting system of a thick domain wall and a black hole. We numerically solve the scalar field equation in the Schwarzschild spacetime and show that there exist scalar field configurations representing thick domain walls intersecting the black hole.

Excitation of Kaluza-Klein gravitational mode

We investigate excitation of Kaluza-Klein modes due to the parametric resonance caused by oscillation of radius of compactification. We consider a gravitational perturbation around a D-dimensional spacetime, which we compactify on a (D-4)-sphere to obtain a 4-dimensional theory. The perturbation includes the so-called Kaluza-Klein modes, which are massive in 4-dimension, as well as zero modes, which is massless in 4-dimension. These modes appear as scalar, vector and second-rank symmetric tensor fields in the 4-dimensional theory. Since Kaluza-Klein modes are troublesome in cosmology, quanta of these Kaluza-Klein modes should not be excited abundantly. However, if radius of compactification oscillates, then masses of Kaluza-Klein modes also oscillate and, thus, parametric resonance of Kaluza-Klein modes may occur to excite their quanta. In this paper we consider part of Kaluza-Klein modes which correspond to massive scalar fields in 4-dimension and investigate whether quanta of these modes are excited or not in the so called narrow resonance regime of the parametric resonance. We conclude that at least in the narrow resonance regime quanta of these modes are not excited so catastrophically.
