The property and gravitational field of global monopole of tachyon are investigated in a four-dimensional static space–time. We give an exact solution of the tachyon field in the flat space–time background. Using the linearized approximation of gravity, we get the approximate solution of the metric. We also solve analytically the coupled Einstein and tachyon field equations which is beyond the linearized approximation to determine the gravitational properties of the monopole solution. We find that the metric of tachyon monopole represents an asymptotically AdS space–time with a small effective mass at the origin. We show that this relatively tiny mass is actually negative, as it is in the case of ordinary scalar field.

This chapter discusses the first wave of the exploration of exact solutions to Einstein's gravitational field equations. When Einstein published the final form of the field equations in 1915, only an approximate solution was known. Given the complicated nonlinear character of the field equations, he did not expect that exact solutions could easily be found. He was all the more surprised when the astronomer Karl Schwarzschild presented him with just such an exact solution. Thus, this chapter presents a series of these solutions, beginning with the work of Karl Schwarzschild, Johannes Droste, Willem de Sitter, Alexander Friedmann, Hans Reissner, Gunnar Nordström, and finally, Georges Lemaître.

By resolving the gravitational field into electric and magnetic parts, we define an electrogravity duality transformation and discover an interesting property of the field. Under the duality transformation, a vacuum/flat space–time maps into the original space–time with a topological defect of global monopole/texture. The electrogravity-duality is thus a topological defect generating process. It turns out that all black hole solutions possess dual solutions that imbibe a global monopole.

By the application of the duality transformation, which implies interchange of active and passive electric parts of the Riemann curvature (equivalent to interchanging Ricci and Einstein tensors), it is shown that the global monopole solution in the Kaluza–Klein space–time is dual to the corresponding vacuum solution. Further we also obtain solution dual to flat space which would in general describe a massive global monopole in four-dimensional Euclidean space and would have massless limit analogous to the four-dimensional dual-flat solution.

Using the Clifford bundle formalism, a Lagrangian theory of the Yang–Mills type (with a gauge fixing term and an auto interacting term) for the gravitational field in Minkowski space–time is presented. It is shown how two simple hypotheses permit the interpretation of the formalism in terms of effective Lorentzian or teleparallel geometries. In the case of a Lorentzian geometry interpretation of the theory, the field equations are shown to be equivalent to Einstein's equations.

<p class="1Body">A summarization of the Alcubierre metric is given in comparison to a new metric that has been formulated based on the theoretical assertion of a recently published paper entitled “gravitational space-time curve generation via accelerated particles”. The new metric mathematically describes a warp field where particle accelerators can theoretically generate gravitational space-time curves that compress or contract a volume of space-time toward a hypothetical vehicle traveling at a sub-light velocity contingent upon the amount of voltage generated. Einstein’s field equations are derived based on the new metric to show its compatibility to general relativity. The “time slowing” effects of relativistic gravitational time dilation inherent to the gravitational field generated by the particle accelerators is mathematically shown to be counteracted by a gravitational equilibrium point between an arrangement of two equal magnitude particle accelerators. The gravitational equilibrium point produces a volume of flat or linear space-time to which the hypothetical vehicle can traverse the region of contracted space-time without experiencing time slippage. The theoretical warp field possessing these attributes is referred to as the two gravity source warp field which is mathematically described by the new metric.</p>

In this paper we propose the toy model of the closed string tachyon effective action that has marginal tachyon profile as its exact solution in case of constant or linear dilaton background. Then we will apply this model for description of two-dimensional bosonic string theory. We will find that the background configuration with the spatial dependent linear dilaton, flat space–time metric and marginal tachyon profile is the exact solution of our model even if we take into account backreaction of tachyon on dilaton and on metric.

We prove that both global monopole and minimally coupled static zero mass scalar field are electrogravity dual of the Schwarzschild solution or flat space and they share the same equation of state, [Formula: see text]. This property was however known for the global monopole space–time while it is for the first time being established for the scalar field. In particular, it turns out that the Xanthopoulos–Zannias scalar field solution is dual to flat space.

GUT’s in curved space-time is considered. The set of asymptotically free and asymptotically conformally invariant models based on the SU (N) gauge group is constructed. The general solutions of renormalization group equations are considered as the special ones. Several SU (2N) models, which are finite in flat space-time (on the one-loop level) and asymptotically conformally invariant in external gravitational field are also presented.
