Classical Double Copy: Kerr-Schild-Kundt metrics from Yang-Mills Theory

M Gürses, B Tekin - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
The classical double copy idea relates some solutions of Einstein's theory with those of

Exact solutions to quadratic gravity

V Pravda, A Pravdová, J Podolský, R Švarc - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
Since all Einstein spacetimes are vacuum solutions to quadratic gravity in four dimensions,
in this paper we study various aspects of non-Einstein vacuum solutions to this theory. Most …
