Generating Generalized G(D-2) solutions

2008 
We show how one can systematically construct vacuum solutions to Einstein field equations with D-2 commuting Killing vectors in D>4 dimensions. The construction uses Einstein-scalar field seed solutions in four dimensions and is performed both for the case when all the Killing directions are spacelike, as well as when one of the Killing vectors is timelike. The later case corresponds to generalizations of stationary axially symmetric solutions to higher dimensions. Some examples representing generalizations of known higher dimensional stationary solutions are discussed in terms of their rod structure and horizon locations and deformations.
