Generalized plane-fronted gravitational waves in any dimension — •Yuri Obukhov — Inst. f. Theor. Physik, Univ. zu Köln, 50923 Köln — Dept. Theor. Phys., Moscow State Univ., 117234 Moscow, Russia

We study the gravitational waves in spacetimes of arbitrary dimension. They generalize the pp-waves and the Kundt waves, obtained earlier in four dimensions. Explicit solutions of the Einstein and Einstein-Maxwell equations are derived for an arbitrary cosmological constant.
