This paper is a continuation of a recent work by the same authors [J. Phys. A, Math. Gen. 32, 827-844 (1999; Zbl 0932.37045)] where they proved that a completely integrable geodesic equation has a fully separable Hamilton-Jacobi equation if and only if the Lagrangian is a composite of the evolutive first integrals. In this paper, they focus on the separability of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for the Kerr metric in general relativity and based on their above stated theorem. They explain the relationship of the quadratic integrals with the residual symmetry group after reduction by \(SO(3)\) of the Schwarzschild evolution space. Finally, the authors propose some open questions and relations with known results on this topic.
