Separability of the Hamilton-Jacobi and Klein-Gordon Equations in Kerr-de Sitter Metrics
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study separability of the Hamilton-Jacobi and massive Klein-Gordon equations in the general Kerr-de Sitter spacetime in all dimensions. Complete separation of both equations is carried out in 2n+1 spacetime dimensions with all n rotation parameters equal, in which case the rotational symmetry group is enlarged from (U(1)) to U(n). We explicitly construct the additional Killing vectors associated with the enlarged symmetry group which permit separation. We also derive first-order equations of motion for particles in these backgrounds and examine some of their properties.

Integrability of Particle Motion and Scalar Field Propagation in Kerr-(Anti) de Sitter Black Hole Spacetimes in All Dimensions
We study the Hamilton-Jacobi and massive Klein-Gordon equations in the general Kerr(Anti) de Sitter black hole background in all dimensions. Complete separation of both equations is carried out in cases when there are two sets of equal black hole rotation parameters. We analyze explicitly the symmetry properties of these backgrounds that allow for this Liouville integrability and construct a no...
متن کاملSeparability of Hamilton–Jacobi and Klein–Gordon Equations in General Kerr–NUT–AdS Spacetimes
The study of the separability of the Hamilton–Jacobi and the corresponding scalar field equations in a curved spacetime has a long history. Robertson [1] and Eisenhart [2] discussed general conditions for such a separability in spaces which admit a complete set of mutually orthogonal families of hypersurfaces. An important class of 4-dimensional separable spacetimes, including several type D me...
متن کاملSeparability in Cohomogeneity - 2 Kerr - NUT - AdS Metrics
The remarkable and unexpected separability of the Hamilton-Jacobi and Klein-Gordon equations in the background of a rotating four-dimensional black hole played an important rôle in the construction of generalisations of the Kerr metric, and in the uncovering of hidden symmetries associated with the existence of Killing tensors. In this paper, we show that the Hamilton-Jacobi and Klein-Gordon eq...
متن کاملIntegrability of Some Charged Rotating Supergravity Black Hole Solutions in Four and Five Dimensions
We study the integrability of geodesic flow in the background of some recently discovered charged rotating solutions of supergravity in four and five dimensions. Specifically, we work with the gauged multicharge Taub-NUT-Kerr-(Anti) de Sitter metric in four dimensions, and the U(1)3 gauged charged-Kerr-(Anti) de Sitter black hole solution of N = 2 supergravity in five dimensions. We explicitly ...
متن کاملSymmetry operators and separability of massive Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations in the general 5-dimensional Kerr-(anti-)de Sitter black hole background
It is shown that the Dirac equation is separable by variables in a five-dimensional rotating Kerr-(anti-)de Sitter black hole with two independent angular momenta. A first order symmetry operator that commutes with the Dirac operator is constructed in terms of a rank-three Killing-Yano tensor whose square is a second order symmetric Stäckel-Killing tensor admitted by the five-dimensional Kerr-(...
