Description |
Higher dimensional gravity theories when reduced to two dimensions has infinite number of symmetries in it. The symmetry group is called the Geroch group. Geroch group allows one to associate space-time independent matrices with gravitational configurations that effectively depend on only two coordinates. The construction of Geroch group matrices is discussed for various black hole examples like 5D Myers Perry and 5D Kaluza Klein BHs. Relation between these Geroch group matrices and charge matrices are also discussed. (Reference: arxiv hep-th 1408.0875) |
