Analytical solutions of the geodesic equation in axially symmetric space-times — •Eva Hackmann and Claus Lämmerzahl — ZARM, Universität Bremen

In recent years, the theory of elliptic and hyperelliptic functions was rediscovered for the purpose of analytically solving geodesic equations in various space-times. In this talk we will present the general mathematical methods and illustrate the procedure for the example of the geodesic equation in Kerr and Kerr-de Sitter space-times, which can then easily be adapted to all type-D space-times.
