Stationary axisymmetric black holes with matter

Understand

We provide a geometric framework for the construction of non-vacuum black holes whose metrics are stationary and axisymmetric.

• Under suitable assumptions we show that the Einstein equations reduce to an Einstein-harmonic map type system and analyze the compatibility of the resulting equations.
• This framework will be fundamental to our forthcoming construction of metric-stationary axisymmetric bifurcations of Kerr solving the Einstein--Klein--Gordon system, and as such, we include specializations of all of our formulas to the case of a time-periodic massive scalar field.
