Description

In this paper, the problem of finding an axisymmetric stationary spacetime from a specified set of multipole moments is studied. The condition on the multipole moments, for the existence of a solution, is formulated as a convergence condition on a power series formed from the multipole moments. The methods in this paper can also be used to give approximate solutions to any order, as well as estimates on each term of the resulting power series
