Gravitational flux tubes

Abstract: By studying multidimensional Kaluza-Klein theories, or gravity plus U(1) or SU(2) gauge fields it is shown that these theories possess similar flux tube solutions. The gauge field which fills the tube geometry of these solutions leads to a comparision with the flux tube structures in QCD. These solutions also carry a "magnetic" charge, Q, which for the SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills (EYM) system exhibits a dual relationship with the Yang-Mills gauge coupling, g, (Q = 1/g). As Q → 0 or Q → ∞, g → ∞ or g → 0 respecti… Show more

“…Thus, keeping both Q = 0 = C and a non-zero dilaton gives us an asymptotically non-flat black hole model. The case C = 0 (without dilaton), yields a metric which is analogous to the BR metric [17][18][19].…”

“…The constructions considered in the present paper can be also relevant for higherdimensional generalization of BR-like solutions [23]. In particular, it concerns the issue of compactification of extra-dimensions in Kaluza-Klein theories where flux tubes of constant cross-sections can arise as compactified BR-like phase inside an uncompactified one [24], [25].…”

“…33 The gauge fields that go from one side of the wormhole to the other can be used to construct wormhole throats which can be very, very long. [34][35][36][37][38] Then it so happens that these very long wormhole throats have a dynamics that mimic that of string theory, [35][36][37][38] which raises the interesting question of whether wormhole theory and in particular child universe theory could be the origin of string theory, which could appear as the effective description of the dynamics of these long wormhole throats.…”
