Abstract

We solve the Euclidean Einstein equations with three-index antisymmetric and two-index antisymmetric (electromagnetic) tensors for monopole configurations on a space with three-surfaces of topology S1×S2 and describe wormhole solutions. We show that these wormholes and the one of Giddings and Strominger, Hawking, Halliwell and Laflamme, and Myers can be obtained by slicing five-dimensional spaces with horizons.
