BIANCHI IX GROUP-MANIFOLD REDUCTIONS OF GRAVITY
Keyword(s):
We exhibit a new way to perform the group-manifold reduction of pure Einstein gravity in the vielbein formulation when the compactification group manifold is S3. The new Bianchi IX group-manifold reduction is obtained by exploiting the two three-dimensional Lie algebras that the S3 group manifold admits. As an application of the new reduction we show that there exists a domain wall solution to the lower-dimensional theory which upon uplifting to the higher-dimension turns out to be the self-dual (in the nonvanishing components of both curvature and spin connection) Kaluza–Klein monopole.
