A $$1+5$$ 1 + 5 -dimensional gravitational-wave solution: curvature singularity and spacetime singularity
Abstract We solve a $$1+5$$ 1 + 5 -dimensional cylindrical gravitational-wave solution of the Einstein equation, in which there are two curvature singularities. Then we show that one of the curvature singularities can be removed by an extension of the spacetime. The result exemplifies that the curva...
