On the Goldberg?Sachs theorem in higher dimensions in the non-twisting case
Original language description
We study a generalization of the shearfree part? of the Goldberg?Sachs theorem for Einstein spacetimes admitting a non-twisting multiple Weyl aligned null direction (WAND) in n>5 spacetime dimensions. The form of the corresponding optical matrix ? is restricted by the algebraically special property in terms of the degeneracy of its eigenvalues. In particular, there necessarily exists at least one multiple eigenvalue, and further constraints arise in various special cases. For example, when ? is non-degenerate and certain (boost weight zero) Weyl components do not vanish, all eigenvalues of ? coincide and such spacetimes thus correspond to the Robinson?Trautman class. On the other hand, in certain degenerate cases all non-zero eigenvalues can be distinct. We also present explicit examples of Einstein spacetimes admitting some of the permitted forms of ?, including examples violating the optical constraint?.
