We provide an exhaustive and illustrated classification of timelike and null geodesics in the near-horizon region of near-extremal Kerr black holes. The classification of polar motion extends to Kerr black holes of arbitrary spin. The…

We derive the analytical solutions of the bound timelike geodesic orbits in Kerr spacetime. The analytical solutions are expressed in terms of the elliptic integrals using Mino time $\lambda$ as the independent variable. Mino time decouples…

We study the null geodesics in the extremal Kerr-Newman exterior. We clarify the roots of the radial potential and obtain the parameter space of the azimuthal angular momentum and the Carter constant of the light rays for varieties of the…

We present analytical solutions describing a family of both inwardly and outwardly spiralling orbits in the Kerr spacetime. The solutions are exact, and remarkable for their simplicity. These orbits all have the angular momentum and energy…

The null geodesic equation in the Kerr spacetime can be expressed as a set of integral equations involving certain potentials. We classify the roots of these potentials and express the integrals in manifestly real Legendre elliptic form. We…

Recent observations of the orbits of star clusters around Sgr $A^\star$, imaging of black holes and gravitational waveforms of merging compact objects require a detailed understanding of the general relativistic geodesic motion. We came up…

We consider the geodesic motions in the Kerr-Sen-AdS$_4$ spacetime. We obtain the equations of motion for light rays and test particles. Using the parametric diagrams, we shown some regions where the radial and latitudinal geodesic motions…

The study of Kerr geodesics has a long history, particularly for those occurring within the equatorial plane, which is generally well-understood. However, upon comparison with the classification introduced by one of us…

In this paper we analyze the Kerr geometry in the context of Conformal Gravity, an alternative theory of gravitation, which is a direct extension of General Relativity. Following previous studies in the literature, we introduce an explicit…

Starting with an exact and simple geodesic, we generate approximate geodesics by summing up higher-order geodesic deviations within a General Relativistic setting, without using Newtonian and post-Newtonian approximations. We apply this…

We derive novel analytical solutions describing timelike and null geodesics in the Kerr spacetime. The solutions are parameterized explicitly by constants of motion -- the energy, the angular momentum, and the Carter constant -- and initial…

We provide analytical closed form solutions for the parallel transport along a bound geodesic in Kerr spacetime. This can be considered the lowest order approximation for the motion a spinning black hole in an extreme mass-ratio inspiral.…

We consider null geodesics in the exterior region of a subextremal Kerr spacetime. We show that most well-known fundamental properties of null geodesics can be represented on one plot. In particular, one can see immediately that the…

We show that the null geodesic radial action for unbound orbits in the Kerr spacetime, and consequently the scattering angle, can be resummed in terms of hypergeometric functions, extending previous results [M.~M.~Ivanov, et al.…

In this article we study the geodesic motion of test particles and light in the five-dimensional (rotating) black string spacetime. If a compact dimension is added to the four-dimensional Schwarzschild or Kerr spacetime, the new…

In a recent paper (Phys. Dark Univ. {\bf 31}, 100744 (2021)) it has been obtained new static black hole solutions with primary hairs by the Gravitational Decoupling. In this work we either study the geodesic motion of massive and massless…

We study null geodesics that connect the two asymptotically flat regions of the maximally extended Kerr spacetime. These vortical geodesics traverse both horizons and pass through the ring singularity, linking the positive-$r$ exterior to…

The analytic extension of the Kerr spacetimes into the negative radial region contains closed causal curves for any non-zero rotation parameter $a$ and mass parameter $M$. Furthermore, the spacetimes become totally vicious when $|a|>M$,…

The knowledge of the properties of the different exact solutions modeling binary systems, is a necessary step towards the classification of physically suitable solutions and its corresponding limits of applicability. In the present paper,…

The timelike geodesic equations resulting from the Kerr gravitational metric element are derived and solved exactly including the contribution from the cosmological constant. The geodesic equations are derived, by solving the…
