Einstein-Born-Infeld on Taub-NUT Spacetime in 2k+2 Dimensions

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

We wish to construct solutions of Taub-NUT spacetime in Einstein-Born-Infeld gravity in even dimensions. Since Born-Infeld theory is a nonlinear electrodynamics theory, in leads to nonlinear differential equations. However a proper analytical solution was not obtain, we try to solve it numerically (by the Runge-Kotta method) with initial conditions coinciding with those of our previous work in Einstein-Maxwell gravity. We solve equations for 4, 6 and 8 dimensions and do data fitting by the least-squares method. For N=l=b=1, the metric turns to the NUT solution only in 8 dimensions, but in 4 and 6 dimensions the spacetime does not have any Nut solution.
