Abstract

The exact solutions of Einstein's (vacuum) field equations corresponding to a (real-poles) three-solitonic perturbation of a Bianchi type II space-time are investigated by using computer algebra. Two-dimensional and three-dimensional plots of the relevant solitonic fields are obtained numerically.
