Kaluza-Klein reduction of conformally flat spaces

arXiv:math-ph/0609025 · doi:10.1142/S021827180600956X

Abstract

Kaluza-Klein reduction of conformally flat spaces is considered for arbitrary dimensions. The corresponding equations are particularly elegant for the reduction from four to three dimensions. Assuming circular symmetry leads to explicit solutions which also arise from specific two-dimensional dilaton gravity actions.
