Description
We consider stationary and axisymmetric solutions in General
Relativity, primarily in five dimensions. We motivative the
introduction of the Rod-structure for any given solution and give
examples of Rod-structures for various five-dimensional exact
solutions of General Relativity. We consider the questions of
uniqueness and existence of a solution given the Rod-structure.
Finally we review briefly the uniqueness theorem of Hollands and
Yazadjiev which proves that five-dimensional stationary and
axisymmetric solutions are unique given the Rod-structure, and the
asymptotic charges.
