Integrability of Particle Motion and Scalar Field Propagation in Kerr-(Anti) de Sitter Black Hole Spacetimes in All Dimensions

We study the Hamilton-Jacobi and massive Klein-Gordon equations in the general Kerr(Anti) de Sitter black hole background in all dimensions. Complete separation of both equations is carried out in cases when there are two sets of equal black hole rotation parameters. We analyze explicitly the symmetry properties of these backgrounds that allow for this Liouville integrability and construct a nontrivial irreducible Killing tensor associated with the enlarged symmetry group which permits separation. We also derive first-order equations of motion for particles in these backgrounds and examine some of their properties. This work greatly generalizes previously known results for both the Myers-Perry metrics, and the Kerr-(Anti) de Sitter metrics in higher dimensions.
