Abstract
We provide a classification of -vacuum spacetimes which admit a Killing vector field with respect to which the associated "Mars-Simon tensor" (MST) vanishes and having a conformally flat (or ). To that end, we also give a complete classification of conformal Killing vector fields on the -sphere up to M\"obius transformations shedding light on the two fundamental constants that characterize the family of Kerr-de Sitter-like spacetimes, which turn out to be well-defined geometrical invariants. The topology of is determined in every case, and a characterization result at of the Kerr-de Sitter family presented.
