Abstract
We present the extension of the Einstein-Maxwell system called electrovac universes by introducing a cosmological constant Λ. In the absence of the Λ term, the crucial equation in solving the Einstein-Maxwell system is the Laplace equation. The cosmological constant modifies this equation to become in a nonlinear partial differential equation which takes the form ΔU =2ΛU3. We offer special solutions of this equation.
