On generalized Melvin solution for the Lie algebra E₆

A multidimensional generalization of Melvin's solution for an arbitrary simple Lie algebra $\cal G$ is considered. The gravitational model in $D$ dimensions, $D \geq 4$, contains $n$ 2-forms and $l \geq n$ scalar fields, where $n$ is the rank of $\cal G$. The solution is governed by a set of $n$ functions $H_s(z)$ obeying $n$ ordinary differential equations with certain boundary conditions imposed. It was conjectured earlier that these functions should be polynomials (the so-called fluxbrane polynomials). The polynomials $H_s(z)$, $s = 1,\dots,6$, for the Lie algebra $E_6$ are obtained and a corresponding solution for $l = n = 6$ is presented. The polynomials depend upon integration constants $Q_s$, $s = 1,\dots,6$. They obey symmetry and duality identities. The latter ones are used in deriving asymptotic relations for solutions at large distances. The power-law asymptotic relations for $E_6$-polynomials at large $z$ are governed by integer-valued matrix $\nu = A^{-1} (I + P)$, where $A^{-1}$ is the inverse Cartan matrix, $I$ is the identity matrix and $P$ is permutation matrix, corresponding to a generator of the $Z_2$-group of symmetry of the Dynkin diagram. The 2-form fluxes $\Phi^s$, $s = 1,\dots,6$, are calculated.
