摘要

Application of the first junction condition to a highly symmetric spacetime was investigated recently in Chin.Phys. Lett. B 546 189 2006, where a partial differential equation arising from the connection of the Robertson-Walker and the Schwarzschild-de Sitter metrics was presented, but no solutions of the equation were provided. Here we provide a proof to the statement that there exist solutions of the equation. In addition, an example of the solution and some analyses associated with this issue are presented. We find that in connecting the two metrics, there are three conditions which should be satisfied. Of these conditions, one condition constrains the place where the two metrics can take the same value for a local system whose mass is provided which marks the boundary of the system, and the other two constrain the transformation form. In realizing the connection of the two metrics, the latter two conditions are required to be satisfied only at the boundary defined by the former condition.
