It is well-known that the mass of a non-asymptotically flat spacetime cannot be uniquely defined. Some mass formulas for the Kerr-AdS black hole have been found and used in studying black hole thermodynamics. However, the derivations…

We apply our model of quantum gravity to a Kerr-AdS spacetime of dimension $2 m+1$, $m\ge2$, where all rotational parameters are equal, resulting in a wave equation in a quantum spacetime which has a sequence of solutions that can be…
This work is geared towards analysis of shadows cast by Kerr-de Sitter (KdS) and Kerr-de Sitter Revisited (RKdS) black holes. Considering observers in the vicinity of the static radius, we derive the impact parameters defining the apparent…
We explore spacetime torsion in a two-dimensional setting, wherein it corresponds to a vector field. Without invoking field equations of a particular gravitational theory, we develop visualization techniques for such torsion fields,…
In this paper the symmetries of the dual manifold were investigated. We found the conditions when the manifold and its dual admit the same Killing vectors and Killing-Yano tensors. In the case of an Einstein's metric $g_{\mu\nu}$ the…

We derive the necessary and sufficient conditions under which the general Plebanski-Demianski (PD) solution of Einstein-Maxwell theory with a negative cosmological constant admits Killing spinors. We consider in detail two different scaling…
We investigate the Hamilton-Jacobi equation of a probe particle moving on d-dimensional generalized Lense-Thirring metric. This space-time is different from the slowly rotating Myers-Perry black hole at second order in rotation parameters.…
We study the canonical quantization of a massive scalar field on a five dimensional, rotating black hole space-time. We focus on the case where the space-time is asymptotically anti-de Sitter and the black hole's two angular momentum…
We formulate conditions on the geometry of a non-expanding horizon $\Delta$ which are sufficient for the space-time metric to coincide on $\Delta$ with the Kerr metric. We introduce an invariant which can be used as a measure of how…
Solutions pertaining to a Kerr black hole with a flat horizon undergoing gradual rotation are explored in the context of gravitational theories modified by dynamical Chern-Simons terms with cylindrical metrics, which approach asymptotically…
The Kerr solution is the cornerstone of General Relativity (GR) for modelling astrophysical rotating black holes and for testing GR through gravitational-wave observations and black hole imaging. Understanding how the Kerr geometry is…
It was recently discovered that Killing horizons in the generic Kerr-NUT-(anti) de Sitter spacetimes are projectively singular, i.e. their spaces of the null generators have singular geometry. Only if the cosmological constant takes the…
We reconsider the Kerr metric with cosmological term $\Lambda$ imposing the condition that the angular velocity $\omega$ of the dragging of the inertial frames vanishes at spatial boundaries. Some properties of the extreme black holes in…
