Title

Rotating Distorted Black Holes in Higher Dimensions
Coauthors

Abstract

We obtain a new exact solution to the 5D Einstein equations in vacuum representing a distorted Myers-Perry black hole. Technically, it is constructed by means of a 2-fold Bäcklund transformation. The solution is interpreted as describing the near-horizon region of the Myers-Perry black hole situated in a stationary and axisymmetric distribution of external matter. It can be relevant for understanding the properties of certain astrophysical systems, such as equilibrium configurations of black holes and matter moving in a quasi-stationary state. The properties of the solution are investigated and compared to those of the distorted Kerr black hole.
