✦ Synopsis

Assuming the four-dimensional space-time to be a general warped product of two surfaces we reduce the four-dimensional Einstein equations to a two-dimensional problem which can be solved. All global vacuum solutions are explicitly constructed and analysed. The classification of the solutions includes the Schwarzschild, the (anti-)de Sitter, and other well-known solutions but also many exact ones whose detailed global properties to our knowledge have not been discussed before. They have a natural physical interpretation describing single or several wormholes, domain walls of curvature singularities, cosmic strings, cosmic strings surrounded by domain walls, solutions with closed timelike curves, etc.

A number of exact solutions of Einstein's equations are obtained, which describe the collision and subsequent interaction of two plane parallel waves. Gravitational waves, null electromagnetic fields, and neutrino fields are all considered with collisions between any two types. It is shown that two
