Remarks on generalised Kerr-Schild metrics

  • 1. King's Coll., London (UK). Dept. of Mathematics

Description

Vacuum to vacuum and source-free Einstein-Maxwell to source-free Einstein-Maxwell generalised Kerr-Schild metrics are studied. It turns out that such spacetimes admit a geodesic null vector and are such that the vacuum and Einstein-Maxwell first-order perturbation field equations are respectively satisfied. (author)
