Can a black hole with conformal scalar hair rotate?

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2014-04-23 v3

Abstract

It is shown that, under the separability assumption for the metric, the slow-rotation approximation for the Bocharova-Bronnikov-Melnikov-Bekenstein black hole in general relativity with a conformally coupled scalar field does not work outside the event horizon. Suggestions indicated by our present analysis towards a fully rotating black hole solution are discussed.
