On the non-existance of the nonequatorial circular geodesics in the Kerr metric

Description

It is shown that no circular non-equatorial orbits exist in the non-extremal Kerr metric. Hence the de Felice result that no circular geodesics with constant latitude THETA not equal to π/2 exist is generalized
