1111.1897 (S. Kalyana Rama)

Static brane--like vacuum solutions in D \ge 5 dimensional spacetime
with positive ADM mass but no horizon

S. Kalyana Rama
We describe static, brane--like, solutions to vacuum Einstein's equations in D = n + m + 2 dimensional spacetime with m \ge 2 and n \ge 1. These solutions have positive ADM mass but no horizon. The curvature invariants are finite everywhere except at r = 0 where r is the radial coordinate in the m + 1 dimensional space. The presence of n \ge 1 extra dimensions is crucial for these properties. Such solutions may be naturally anticipated if Mathur's fuzzball proposal for black holes is correct.
