We give the equations of motion for a self-gravitating Dirac p-brane embedded in an even codimension spacetime. The dynamics of the bulk are dictated by Lovelock gravity and permit matching conditions, even when the codimension is strictly greater th...

Matching conditions for a brane of arbitrary codimension (2005)
Journal Article

We present matching conditions for distributional sources of arbitrary codimension in the context of Lovelock gravity. Then we give examples, treating maximally symmetric distributional p-branes, embedded in flat, de Sitter and anti-de Sitter spaceti...

Birkhoff's theorem in Lovelock gravity (2005)
Journal Article

We show that the generic solutions of the Lovelock equations with spherical, planar or hyperbolic symmetry are locally isometric to the corresponding static Lovelock black hole. As a consequence, these solutions are locally static: they admit an addi... Read More about Birkhoff's theorem in Lovelock gravity.
