The abstract, sentence by sentence
Motivated by the strong astronomical evidences supporting that huge black-holes might inhabit the center of many active galaxies, we have studied the integrability of oblique orbits of test particles around the exact superposition of a black-hole and a thin disk. We have considered the relativistic and the Newtonian limits. Exhaustive numerical analyses were performed, and bounded zones of chaotic behavior were found for both limits. An intrinsic relativistic gravitational effect is detected: the chaoticity of trajectories that do not cross the disk.

Chaos was found, for instance, in “black hole + gravitational wave” spacetimes [ref] , spacetimes representing the exterior field of quadrupole-deformed [ref] and other nonspherical [ref] central bodies, and in axisymmetric gravitating disk systems with or without a central black hole [ref] .
