Higher Conservation Law for the Multi-Centre Metrics
Abstract
Description
The multi-centre metrics are a family of euclidean solutions of the empty space Einstein equations with self-dual curvature. For this full class, we determine which metrics do exhibit an extra conserved quantity quadraic in the momenta, induced by a Killing-Stackel tensor. Our results bring to light several metrics which correspond to classically integrable dynamical systems. They include, as particular cases, the Eguchi-Hanson and Taub-NUT metrics.
