GEOMETRIC CHARACTERIZATIONS OF THE KERR ISOLATED HORIZON

GEOMETRIC CHARACTERIZATIONS OF THE KERR ISOLATED HORIZON

We formulate conditions on the geometry of a nonexpanding horizon Δ which are sufficient for the spacetime metric to coincide on Δ with the Kerr metric. We introduce an invariant which can be used as a measure of how different the geometry of a given nonexpanding horizon is from the …
