Integral Equations of Fields on the Rotating Black Hole

It is known that the radial equation of the massless fields with spin around Kerr black holes cannot be solved by special functions. Recently, the analytic solution was obtained by use of the expansion in terms of the special functions and various astrophysical application have been discussed. It was pointed out that the coefficients of the expansion by the confluent hypergeometric functions are identical to those of the expansion by the hypergeometric functions. We explain the reason of this fact by using the integral equations of the radial equation. It is shown that the kernel of the equation can be written by the product of confluent hypergeometric functions. The integral equaton transforms the expansion in terms of the confluent hypergeometric functions to that of the hypergeometric functions and vice versa, which explains the reason why the expansion coefficients are universal. e-mail address: [email protected] e-mail address: [email protected]
