Separability of the Klein-Gordon equation for rotating spacetimes obtained from Newman-Janis algorithm
Abstract
In the literature, the Newman-Janis algorithm (NJA) has been widely used to construct stationary and axisymmetric spacetimes to describe rotating black holes. In addition, it has been recently shown that the general stationary and axisymmetric spacetime generated through NJA allows the complete separability of the null geodesic equations. In fact, the Hamilton-Jacobi equation in this spacetime is also separable if one of the metric functions is additively separable. In this work, we further study the conditions for a separable Klein-Gordon equation in such a general spacetime. Here, the relations between the NJA spacetime and other parametrized axially symmetric spacetimes in the literature are also discussed.
