1 Self-Gravitating Static Black Holes in 4D Einstein-Klein-Gordon System with Nonminimal Derivative Coupling Bobby Eka Gunara, and Ainol Yaqin Indonesian Center for Theoretical and Mathematical Physics ICTMP arxiv: v [hep-th] 8 Mar 07 and Theoretical Physics Laboratory Theoretical High Energy Physics and Instrumentation Research Group, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Institut Teknologi Bandung Jl. Ganesha no. 0 Bandung, Indonesia, yaqin.al@students.itb.ac.id, bobby@fi.itb.ac.id Abstract We study static black holes of four dimensional gravitational model with nonminimal derivative coupling and a scalar potential turned on. By taking an ansatz, namely, the first derivative of the scalar field is proportional to square root of a metric function, we reduce the Einstein field equation and the scalar field equation of motions into a single highly nonlinear differential equation. We show that near boundaries the solution is not the critical point of the scalar potential and the effective geometry becomes a space of constant scalar curvature. Introduction Modified Einstein s gravitational theories have been intensely studied over the last thirty years since they might uncover some cosmological problems such as the existence of dark matter and dark energy, the inflationary scenario in the early universe, and the accelerated expansion of our universe. Among the models, it is of interest to consider a model called nonminimal derivative coupling NMDC gravitational theory in four dimensions since it has been shown that this model provides an inflationary accelerated expansion model of our universe without introducing any scalar potential []. The action of the theory has the form [, ] S = d 4 x [ ] R Λ g εg µν +ξrg µν +ηr µν µ φ ν φ. Corresponding author

2 whereg µν isaspacetimemetricandg detg µν, whiler µν andrarethericcitensorand the scalar curvature, respectively. In the rest of this paper we use the indices α,β,µ,ν = 0,...3. Also, we have a real scalar field φ. The constants ξ and η are real and called the derivative coupling parameter with dimension of the length-squared, whereas Λ is the cosmological constant and κ /m p where m p is the Planck mass. The parameter ε = ±, where in the case of ε = we have a theory with a canonical scalar field, while ε = we have a phantom scalar field [3]. The aim of this paper is to consider a class of static black hole solutions of four dimensional Einstein-scalar theory with nonminimal derivative coupling and the scalar potential Vφ turned on. The spacetime metric is conformal to conformal to M S k where M is a two-surface, while S k are Einstein surfaces with k = 0,±. The latter cases are related to two-torus, two-sphere, and Riemann surfaces as discussed in the next section. To solve the Einstein field equation and the scalar equation of motions, we take an ansatz on the first derivative of the scalar field such that it is proportional to square root of a metric function, see 3.. Such a setup simplifies the Einstein field equation and the scalar field equation of motions into a single highly nonlinear differential equation in Y where Y is a metric function. Although, it is difficult to solve this equation, it is of interest to focus the behavior of the solutions near the boundaries, namely, in the asymptotic region and near horizon limit. In the asymptotic limit, we may have that at the zeroth order the function Y is fixed, but the scalar φ cannot be frozen. This implies that the scalar potential cannot be extremized. The effective geometry turns to be a space of constant scalar curvature but not maximally symmetric. This space could be anti-de Sitter AdS or a space with negative constant scalar curvature. Near the horizon limit as the surfaces S k become minimal or Y = ǫ with 0 < ǫ. This would lead the blow up of the ansatz 3. unless the first derivative of a metric function ρr with respect to the radial coordinate r is proportional to ǫ where ρr can be thought of as the radius of S k. The near-horizon geometry in this case is IR, S k where IR, is the -Minkowskian surface for k = ±. The scalar field φ in this case depends linearly on r which implies that it is not the critical point of the scalar potential. This situation differs from the minimal derivative coupling model considered, for example, in [4, 5] and the nonminimal derivative coupling model discussed in [6]. The structure of the paper can be mentioned as follows. In section we give a short review on gravitational theory with NMDC and the scalar potential. We also shortly discuss the Einstein field equation and the scalar equation of motions on static spacetimes. In section 3 we consider a special exact solution by setting the ansatz mentioned above and then, derive a highly nonlinear differential equation called master equation. Then, we discuss the behavior of the master equation near the boundaries in section 4. Finally, we conclude our results in Section 5. A Short Review on NMDC Gravitational Theory. General Setup In this subsection, we give a quick review on four dimensional NMDC Einstein-Klein- Gordon theory with scalar potential turned on. Such a theory equation is described by

3 the following action S = d 4 x g [ ] R εg µν +ηg µν µ φ ν φ Vφ where G µν is the Einstein tensor whose form is given by,. G µν R µν g µνr,. and Vφ is the real scalar potential. In this case, the pre-coefficients η and ξ have been chosen as ξ = η. Varying. with respect to the metric g µν, we get the Einstein field equation with G µν = T µν φ +Tη µν T φ µν = ε µ φ ν φ ε g µν α φ α φ g µν Vφ,,.3 η Tη µν = R µα ν φ α φ+r αν α φ µ φ+ g µν α β φ α β φ+ g µν α α φ G µν α φ α φ µ ν φ α α φ+r µανβ α φ β φ+ µ α φ ν α φ R µφ ν φ g µν α β φ α β φ g µν R αβ α φ β φ..4 The the scalar field equation of motions can be obtained by varying. with respect to φ, namely εg µν +ηg µν µ ν φ = dvφ,.5 dφ where we have used the fact µ G µν = 0.. Static Spacetimes In this subsection we particularly focus on a case of static spacetimes whose metric has the form ds = frdt +grdr +ρ rdω k,.6 where r is the radial coordinate and dω k describes two dimensional Einstein surfaces with k = 0,±. In the cases of k =, k = 0, and k =, we have Riemann surfaces, the two-torus, and the two-sphere, respectively. Note that among the functions fr, gr, and ρr, only two of them are independent. This can be seen by employing a redefinition of the radial coordinate r to absorb one of them. It is important to write down the norm of the Riemann tensor related to the metric.6, namely R αβµν R αβµν = 3 f f f g f f g + 3ρ f g ρ f g+ ρ ρ g + 6 k ρ, ρ g g ρ 4 g.7 which will be useful for our analysis in the next section. Moreover, throughout this paper we simply assume that the scalar field φ in. -.5 depends only on r, namely φ = φr. 3

4 The above setup simplifies the field equations., namely ρ g ρfg ρ ρ fg ρ ρfg + k ρ f 3ρ = η g ρfg ρ 3 ρ fg k ρ fg ρ φ ρfg + εκ fg φ η ρ ρ f ρf + ρ ρ kg ρ = κ εφ gv +η f f g f g 4f g f 4f 3 g + ρ f ρf g ρ g ρfg + ρ ρfg ρfg φ φ +V f, = εκ and the scalar field equation of motions.5, namely { [ fg ρρ ρ ερ f +η fg g fg + ρ g k 3ρ ρ g + 3ρ f ρfg k ρ fg φ V f φ φ φ f +η f g + ρ ρfg +η f 4f g f 8f 3 g 3f g 8f g 3 + ρ ρfg + ρ f 4ρf g 3ρ g 4ρfg 3 ] φ } = dvφ dφ where we have defined A da/dr and A d A/dr for any A Ar. 3 A Special Class of Solutions In this section we discuss a simple model where the scalar field has the form φ.8,.9 φ = νg /, 3. where ν is a non zero real constant and is determined by the field equations in.8 and.9. The ansatz 3. is inspired by the scalar-torsion theory [7] which can be viewed as the solutions of its field equations of motions. As we will see in the next section, this setup has a black hole solution which is different to the case of, for example, [4, 5]. Let us first discuss some consequences of 3.. The condition 3. simply casts.8 and.9 into ρ g ρ g f f { ν f + f [ ερ +η ρ g ρ g ρ kg ρ ρ ρ ρ 3ην ρ f ρ f + ρ ρ g 4f g + f f f f ρ ρ ρρ f ]} fg + ρ g k 4 = = = εν +V 4k ρ η ν εν +V ην k ρ η ν εν +V, = ρ fg dvφ dφ g, g,. 3.

5 Then, by employing the transformation f = ν gf and f = ν fg + f d f dφ, we can rewrite 3. as { fρ [ ε+ην ρ ρ ρ ρ + ρ ρ + k ρ ρ f f + ρ ρ ρ ρ + f ρ f ρ f + f 4f f f f + ρ ρ = ν ρ ν η ν = ν 3ην = fġ εν +V 4k ρ εν +V, ν η ν where f df dφ, εν +V ην k ρ η k ρ ]}. = ρ f ν V. 3.3 Now, in order to get the exact solutions we have two steps of introducing new variables as follows [7]. First, we define x = lnρ, y = ρ ρ,,, z = ρf. ρf, 3.4 which implies that the set of equation in 3.3 becomes ẏ + 3 y + k + εν +V 4k ν e x ν η ν zy = εν V + ην kκ F, ν 3ην e x ż + z k ν e x + ν η ν yz. ην V + k 4 ν y ze x + 3y +z e x 3εν +6V + 4k e x ε ην +yz = 0, = 0, = In this variable, it is easy to see that the second equation in 3.5 can be viewed as a constraint, while the last equation in 3.5 is superfluous [7]. Second, we introduce again a set of new variables Y y, Z z, 3.6 such that we could have ς dy dx = ẏ, dz dx = ż, 3.7 Y Z 5

6 where ς = ±. Then, 3.5 can be rewritten as ς YZ dz dx +Z + dy dx +3Y + k ν e x + κ 4 ν 4 3η ν ν η ν εν +V 4k = 0, ν η ν e x εν V + k ν e x = YZ, ηκ 3εν +6V + k+ηκ ν e x Z = It is important to mention that there is a crucial miscalculation in transforming the equation of motions 3.3 into the new variables Y,Z in ref. [7]. The source of the error Y Z is the missing prefactor ς in the second equation of 3.7. Thus, they obtained the wrong master equation as we will see below. After some computations using the first and the second equations in 3.8 we get the following results Z = χ χ Y V = χ where χ and χ are constant defined as dy dx +3Y kηχν e x +εχν, dy dx +3Y χ χ εν k +ηκ ν e x, 3.9 ν ην, ν 3ην, 3.0 which are non-singular, i.e. η ν and η ν /3 for η > 0. Inserting Z and V in 3.9 into the third equation in 3.8 shows that we have a highly non-linear differential equation, namely d Y ς dx +3dY dx +4kηχν e x + χ dy Y χ ςdy dx dx +3Y kηχν e x +εχν χ χ 3 dy 4kχ +9Y + +η ν e x = 0, 3. dx which is quite complicated and difficult to solve analytically. The equation 3. is the master equation which differs from that of the scalar-tensor theory [7]. We also have dx = Yx, dφ [ ] dlnρf = Z dx Y, 3. such that the metric.6 can be written as [7] ds = fdt + dρ ν ρ Y +ρ dω k, 3.3 6

7 which implies that both Y and Z must be definitely positive. In this case at hand, the norm of the Riemann tensor.7 simplifies to R αβµν R αβµν = 3ν ρ Y f f ρρ f ρ f + f ρ ρ + + 3f ρ Y f ν4 ρ Y + 6 k ν ρ Y, 3.4 ρ 4 +3ν 4 ρ Y ρ + Y where f ρ df and f dρ ρρ d f. The Ricci scalar is simply given by dρ R = 9 Z Y ρ Y 4 Solutions Near Boundaries dy dρ + k ν Y. 3.5 ν ρ Y In this section we would like to show that in our model related to the ansatz 3., it is possible to have a physical black hole solution. This can be seen in two regions, namely the asymptotic region and the near-horizon region. However, as mentioned above, we have generally different situations to the case considered, for example, in [4, 5]. This is so because the scalar field are not frozen near the boundaries which implies that the scalar potential cannot be extremized. 4. Around Asymptotic Region In the asymptotic limit, namely at r +, we may assume x + such that at the zeroth order, the solution of 3., namely Y, tends to a positive constant Y 0 which is Y 0 = εν χ χ 3 χ ς χ, 4. where ς = ±. By solving the second equation in 3., the lapse function f in 3.3 becomes fρ = A 0 ρ 3ςς, 4. with A 0 is a non-zero constant. In this limit, the effective geometry 3.3 becomes a static spacetime of constant Ricci curvature with which can be split into R = 9+3ςς ν Y 0, 4.3 { ν R = Y 0 if ςς = AdS 6ν Y 0 if ςς = non-einstein. 4.4 The norm 3.4 tends to a quadratic form in ρ, namely R αβµν R αβµν = 3ν 4 Y 0 ρ, 4.5 7

8 which shows that in this limit the spacetime is not maximally symmetric. The word effective means that the scalar field φ is not frozen in the region, namely, at the lowest order, the solution of the first equation in 3. is given by φρ = φ 0 +Y / 0 lnρ, 4.6 where φ 0 is a constant. This follows that the scalar potential Vφ cannot be extremized but it has a constant value at the zeroth order, namely V 0 = 3Y 0 χ εν. 4.7 Next, we consider the first order of solutions in the asymptotic limit using the perturbative ansatz Y = Y 0 +Y, 4.8 with Y 0 Y such that the master equation 3. can be simplified into the following linear equation χ d Y 4 χ χ dx +3 ν χ 3 dy χ χ dx 8χ χy [ ] +ηκ +4 χ ν χ k χ ην χk e x +4 χχ η ν 4 k e 4x = 0, 4.9 where we have simply set ς = ς =. Moreover, we also take e mx Y x 0 and e mx dy /dx 0 for m around x +. A special class of solutions of 4.9 has the form +η ν χ k ην χk Y = C S[λ ] e λx +D e λx χκ e x λ +λ + χ η ν 4 k λ +4λ +4 e 4x, 4.0 where C,D IR with and λ, = 3 4 χ χ 4+ εν χ 3 χχ χ ± [ χ S[λ ] = χ 4+ εν χ 3 ] / χ +6 χχ χ χ, 4. { 0 if λ > 0 if λ < 0, 4. The values of λ or λ should be negative, since lim x + Y x 0, and < λ, < 0. The solution 4.0 belongs to the following two cases. First, by simply taking 0 < χ/ χ < and η > 0, the analysis on 4. results ε = and < η ν < 3 +4κ

9 In this case, both λ and λ are negative and we exclude the large limit κ case. Second, we simply take χ/ χ > and η < 0. Analyzing 4., we find ε = and 3 9 κ < η ν < 0, 4.4 and only λ is negative. Solving the second equation in 3., we obtain the first order lapse function f while the first equation gives us dx φρ = φ 0 + Y0 +Y fρ = A 0 ρ 3ςς + ς χ χy 0 Y +kηχν ρ, 4.5 φ 0 +Y / 0 lnρ Y 3/ 0 + C +η ν χ k χ ην χk λ +λ + S[λ ] ρ λ + D ρ λ λ λ ρ + χ η ν 4 k λ +4λ +4 ρ 4 From the second equation in 3.9, we get the first order scalar potential. 4.6 V = 3Y 0 χ εν C λ +3S[λ ] ρ λ +D λ +3 ρ λ 3 χ +η ν χ k ην χk χκ + k ν ρ χ η ν 4 k + χλ +λ + +ηκ χλ +4λ 4 ρ Near Horizon 4.7 Now, let us consider the near-horizon geometry. First, we write down the mean curvature H of S k Σ3 H = νy /, 4.8 where Σ 3 is the hypersurface at t = constant. On the horizon, the surfaces S k have to be minimal for all k, namely H = 0, which follows Y = 0. In order to evade the blow up of the metric 3.3 and the ansatz 3., around the region the function ρr should have the form ρr = ρr h +ǫ r rh, 4.9 where r h is the radius of the horizon, ρr h > 0, and Yr r h = ǫ, 0 < ǫ. From 3.9, we find ρr h = εkη /, 4.0 which follows that it forbids the -torus or k = 0. The two possible cases are k = ε and η > 0 or k = ε and η < 0. In this limit the lapse function fr becomes a constant and 9

10 the near-horizon geometry has to be IR, S k where IR, is the -Minkowskian surface and k = ± [8] whose scalar curvature is given by R = ε η. 4. The scalar field has the form φr = φ h + ρr h r r h, 4. with φ h is a constant. The scalar potential V in 3.9 becomes constant, namely Since the scalar potential V is not extremized, then we have V h = εν η +η ν. 4.3 R 4V h. 4.4 We close this section by making some remarks as follows. First, if the order of ε in 4.9 is p with p, then this would imply ν =. For p <, the scalar field φ εp and V h would diverge, while the scalar field φ would be frozen and V h 0 for p >. The latter case turns out to be forbidden since it leads to the inconsistency 4. and the condition R = 4V h. Second, it is also possible that the metric 3.3 does not have any minimal surface, i.e. H 0. If this is the case then the spacetime could be smooth everywhere or it might have the naked singularity at the origin. 5 Conclusions So far we have considered a family of static black holes in four dimensional Einstein-Klein- Gordon theory with nonminimal derivative coupling and the scalar potential is turned on. The black holes also have unusual topology, namely, the two-surfaces are maximally symmetric withk = 0,±, see.6. Inparticular, wetake thesimple model satisfying the ansatz 3. which simplifies the Einstein field equation.8 and the scalar field equation of motions.9 which are coupled and highly nonlinear. This setup further implies that these coupled differential equations reduce into a single highly nonlinear differential equation, namely equation 3.. First, we showed that in the asymptotic limit, the metric function Y introduced in 3. tends to constant Y 0 but the scalar φ are not fixed. The latter case follows that the scalar potential V in. are not extremized. The effective geometry is the space of negative constant scalar curvature. Then, near the horizon, in order to have a regular metric the metric function ρr should take the form 4.9. The near horizon geometry is IR, S k where IR, is the -Minkowskian surface and k = ±. The scalar field in this case has the linear form with respect to the radial coordinates r and the scalar potential V is not extremized. 0
