Weyl type N solutions with null electromagnetic fields in the Einstein-Maxwell p-form theory
Original language description
We consider d-dimensional solutions to the electrovacuum Einstein-Maxwell equations with the Weyl tensor of type N and a null Maxwell (p+1)-form field. We prove that such spacetimes are necessarily aligned, i.e. the Weyl tensor of the corresponding spacetime and the electromagnetic field share the same aligned null direction (AND). Moreover, this AND is geodetic, shear-free, non-expanding and non-twisting and hence Einstein-Maxwell equations imply that Weyl type N spacetimes with a null Maxwell (p+1)-form field belong to the Kundt class. Moreover, these Kundt spacetimes are necessarily CSI and the (p+1) form is VSI. Finally, a general coordinate form of solutions and a reduction of the field equations are discussed.
