D-dimensional metrics with D-3 symmetries

Abstract

Hidden symmetry transformations of D-dimensional vacuum metrics with D-3 commuting Killing vectors are studied. We solve directly the Einstein equations in the Maison formulation under additional assumptions. We relate the 4-dimensional Reissner-Nordstr\"om solution to a particular case of the 5-dimensional Gross-Perry metric.
