abstract
The complete solution of Einstein's gravitational equations with a vacuum-vacuum Kerr-Schild pencil of metrics $g_{ab}+V l_al_b$ is obtained. Our result generalizes the solution of the Kerr-Schild problem with a flat metric $g_{ab}$ (represented by the Kerr theorem) to the case when $g_{ab}$ is the metric of a curved space-time.

K-essence sources of Kerr-Schild spacetimes
K-essence Lagrangians that can source Kerr-Schild spacetimes must be at most quadratic in the kinetic term, and linear when the congruence is autoparallel or when linearized solutions are also exact.
