A new form of the Kerr solution is presented. The solution involves a time coordinate which represents the local proper time for free-falling observers on a set of simple trajectories. Many physical phenomena are particularly clear when…
We consider vacuum metrics admitting conformal compactification which is smooth up to the scri $\mathscr{I^+}$. We write metric in the Bondi-Sachs form and expand it into power series in the inverse affine distance $1/r$. Like in the case…
We study a limit of the Kerr-(A)dS spacetime in a general dimension where an arbitrary number of its rotational parameters is set equal. The resulting metric after the limit formally splits into two parts - the first part has the form of…

The deformability of a compact object induced by a perturbing tidal field is encoded in the tidal Love numbers, which depend sensibly on the object's internal structure. These numbers are known only for static, spherically-symmetric…
