Energy and Angular Momentum in D dimensional Kerr-AdS black holes-new formulation

Abstract

Recently it was shown that the conserved charges of asymptotically anti de Sitter spacetimes can be written in an explicitly gauge-invariant way in terms of the linearized Riemann tensor and the Killing vectors. Here we employ this construction to compute the mass and angular momenta of the D dimensional Kerr-AdS black holes, which is one of the most remarkable Einstein metrics generalizing the four dimensional rotating black hole.
