The third post-Newtonian equatorial motion in Kerr spacetime

We calculate the third post-Newtonian (PN) order solution for the equatorial motion of a test particle in Kerr spacetime. In particular, we obtain the effects of the spin-induced quadrupole on the periastron advance and the orbital period at the 3PN order.
