On generalized monopole spherical harmonics and the wave equation of a charged massive Kerr black hole

Floyd Williams, UMass Mathematics Department

We find linearly independent solutions of the Goncharov-Firsova wave equation (solutions these author were unable to find) for a massive complex scalar field on a charged Kerr black hole.These solutions generalize the classical monopole spherical harmonic solutions known in the massless case.This is joint work with one of my former students,Dr.Shabnam Beheshti.
