SUSY in the Spacetime of Higher-Dimensional Rotating Black Holes

Abstract

General higher-dimensional rotating black hole spacetimes of any dimensions admit the Killing and Killing-Yano tensors, which generate the hidden symmetries just as in four-dimensional Kerr spacetime. We study these properties of the black holes using the formalism of supersymmetric mechanics of pseudo-classical spinning point particles. We present two nontrivial supercharges, corresponding to the Killing-Yano and conformal Killing-Yano tensors of the second rank. We demonstrate that an unusual extended Poisson-Dirac algebra of these supercharges results in two independent Killing tensors in spacetime dimensions $D\ge 6$, giving explicit examples for the Myers-Perry black holes in $D=6$ dimensions.
