2 Certain Metrics on R 4 + Tominosuke Otsuki Abstract We studied the pseudo-riemannian metric on R 3 R + where γ 2 = Σ 3 b=x b x b a = constant which satisfies the Einstein condition (in [] [2] [3]. The purpose of this work is to find Einstein metrics including the above metric as a special one which is analogous to the relation between the Schwarzschild metric the Kerr one in the theory of relativity.

We studied the pseudo-riemannian metric ds 2 = nx 3 δ bc ax bx c o dx x 4 x 4 bc= + ar 2 b dx c dx 4 dx 4 + ax 4 x 4 on R 3 R + where r 2 = P 3 b= x bx b a = constant which satisfies the Einstein condition (in [] [2] [3]. The purpose of this work is to find Einstein metrics including the above metric as a special one which is analogous to the relation between the Schwarzschild metric the Kerr one in the theory of relativity.. Preliminaries Curvature Tensor Using the polar coordinates (r ϑ ϕ of R 3 : x = r sin ϑ cos ϕ x 2 = r sin ϑ sin ϕ x 3 = r cos ϑ setting x 4 = t the above metric can be written as (. ds 2 = { t 2 + ar 2 dr2 + r 2 (dϑ 2 + sin 2 ϑdϕ 2 + at 2 dt2}. Now setting the formal coordinates (u i as u = r u 2 = ϑ u 3 = ϕ u 4 = t we consider a pseudo-riemannian metric (.2 ds 2 = 4 g ijdu i du j g ij = g ji = F ij ij= u 4 u 4 with (.3 F β = F β (u u 2 F λµ = F λµ (u u 2 u 4 F 2 = F λ = 0 where we set β γ = 2 λ µ ν = 3 4 in the paper.

We see easily that (3.23 the second expression of (3.2 imply (3.22. Therefore it is sufficient to treat only (3.22 for our purpose. From (3.2 (3.22 q does not depend on u 4 hence we obtain φ = c 0 c = constants q = 4c. c 0 + c u 4 u 4 then (3.22 can be written as (3.24 z 2 = 4F y( c y. Hence it must be F y( c y 0 therefore dy du = ±2 F y( c y or dy εy( c y = ±2 εf du where ε = for F > 0 ε = for F < 0. We denote indefinite integrals of the left right h sides by dy εf (3.25 Φ(y = h(u = (u du εy( c y we obtain Φ(y = ±2(h(u + c 2 c 2 = constant. Denoting the inverse function of Φ by Ψ we obtain the following theorem. 6
