We study the 5D static Einstein-Maxwell equations with a dilaton field. We develop an infinite number of solutions using a soliton technique. We study the rod structure of a two-soliton solution and show that a 5D dilatonic black ring and black hole solutions are included. Subject Index: 450, 451

Axially symmetric solution of the Einstein equation with solitons in extra dimensions
Abstract We give the solution to the higher dimensional Einstein equation with axial symmetry by using the inverse scattering method. The solution consists of two solitons in the external dimensions and any number of solitons in the internal dimensions.

A Metric Representation of Belavin's Yang-Mills Pseudoparticle Solution and Its Relation to Some Isotropic Universe
In order to investigate a physical connection between the quantum tunneling processes (vacuum-to vacuum transition or thermal radiation) of Yang-Mills 11 •*' and gravitational" pseudoparticles, T omimatsu"'<l compared several (especially, topological) properties of the Belavin and Schwarzschild solutions with each other in terms of their Euclidean metrics. For that purpose, he transformed the Belavin solution into a metric form on the basis of Carmeli's'l formalism which describes the general theory of relativity in the form of an SL (2, C) gauge field. He showed that, of the two important topological quantities P (the Pontryagin number) and X (the Euler characteristic), P= 0 and ;: '-2 for the rewritten Belavin solution, similar to the result that P= 0 and !: ~, 2 for the Schwarzschild solution. To assure the idea that the origin of radiation with a thermal nature from both pseudoparticles is due to the fact that their x's are non-vanishing, he"b' performed a path-integral approach to the quantization of a massive scalar field in the gravitational field corresponding to Belavin' s solution. The resulting energy spectrum was an incomplete thermal one because of its non -uniform temper a ture and non -zero

The Renormalized Energy-Momentum Tensor In a Robertson -Walker Universe
An expectation value of the energy·momentum tensor for a massive scalar field propagating in a Robertson-\\;'alker universe is calculated by taking account of both effects caused by the particle creation and the vacuum polarization. A special case of the Chitre-Hartle universe which enables us to perform an explicit calculation is also treated.

De Sitter metric as a self-consistent solution of the back reaction problem
Abstract The de Sitter metric is a solution of the Einstein equation even when quantum effects of matter fields are included. However between the curvature and the cosmological constant Λ changes drastically. For some values of Λ, there are two or three solutions, while there is none in some other cases. There can be even a positive curvature solution for negative Λ. These features depend on mass and spin of matter fields and the matter-curvature coupling.

General approach to the sign problem: Factorization method with multiple observables
The sign problem is a notorious problem, which occurs in Monte Carlo simulations of a system with the partition function whose integrand is not real positive. The basic idea of the factorization method applied on such a system is to control some observables in order to determine and sample efficiently the region of configuration space which gives important contribution to the partition function. We argue that it is crucial to choose appropriately the set of the observables to be controlled in order for the method to work successfully in a general system. This is demonstrated by an explicit example, in which it turns out to be necessary to control more than one observable. Extrapolation to large system size is possible due to the nice scaling properties of the factorized functions, and known results obtained by an analytic method are shown to be consistently reproduced.

A Study of the Complex Action Problem in a Simple Model for Dynamical Compactification in Superstring Theory Using the Factorization Method
The IIB matrix model proposes a mechanism for dynamically generating four dimensional space--time in string theory by spontaneous breaking of the ten dimensional rotational symmetry $\textrm{SO}(10)$. Calculations using the Gaussian expansion method (GEM) lend support to this conjecture. We study a simple $\textrm{SO}(4)$ invariant matrix model using Monte Carlo simulations and we confirm that its rotational symmetry breaks down, showing that lower dimensional configurations dominate the path integral. The model has a strong complex action problem and the calculations were made possible by the use of the factorization method on the density of states $\rho_n(x)$ of properly normalized eigenvalues $\tilde\lambda_n$ of the space--time moment of inertia tensor. We study scaling properties of the factorized terms of $\rho_n(x)$ and we find them in agreement with simple scaling arguments. These can be used in the finite size scaling extrapolation and in the study of the region of configuration space obscured by the large fluctuations of the phase. The computed values of $\tilde\lambda_n$ are in reasonable agreement with GEM calculations and a numerical method for comparing the free energy of the corresponding ansatze is proposed and tested.

Curved-space classical solutions of a massive supermatrix model
We investigate here a supermatrix model with a mass term and a cubic interaction. It is based on the super Lie algebra osp(1|32,R), which could play a role in the construction of the eleven-dimensional M-theory. This model contains a massive version of the IIB matrix model, where some fields have a tachyonic mass term. Therefore, the trivial vacuum of this theory is unstable. However, this model possesses several classical solutions where these fields build noncommutative curved spaces and these solutions are shown to be energetically more favorable than the trivial vacuum. In particular, we describe in details two cases, the SO(3)×SO(3)×SO(3) (three fuzzy 2-spheres) and the SO(9) (fuzzy 8-sphere) classical backgrounds.

Towards an Effective Importance Sampling in Monte Carlo Simulations of a System with a Complex Action
The sign problem is a notorious problem, which occurs in Monte Carlo simulations of a system with a partition function whose integrand is not positive. One way to simulate such a system is to use the factorization method where one enforces sampling in the part of the configuration space which gives important contribution to the partition function. This is accomplished by using constraints on some observables chosen appropriately and minimizing the free energy associated with their joint distribution functions. These observables are maximally correlated with the complex phase. Observables not in this set essentially decouple from the phase and can be calculated without the sign problem in the corresponding "microcanonical" ensemble. These ideas are applied on a simple matrix model with very strong sign problem and the results are found to be consistent with analytic calculations using the Gaussian Expansion Method.

Matrix model with manifest general coordinate invariance
Abstract We present a formulation of a matrix model which manifestly possesses the general coordinate invariance when we identify the large N matrices with differential operators. In order to build a matrix model which has the local Lorentz invariance, we investigate how the so (9,1) Lorentz symmetry and the u ( N ) gauge symmetry are mixed together. We first analyze the bosonic part of the model, and we find that the Einstein gravity is reproduced in the classical low-energy limit. We then present a proposal to build a matrix model which has N =2 SUSY and reduces to the type IIB supergravity in the classical low-energy limit.
