I've been trying to find out the relationship between Kerr-Newman BH mass, Angular momentum and Charge. But I cannot find it. If some know please let me know.

Thank you

Why do you think there is such a relationship? These are independent properties.

Really?, I thought Kerr black holes having the relationship angular momentum and mass (J=aM), Kerr-Newman black holes also have that kind of a relationship

(J=aM)
That is just exchanging the angular momentum for a length scale parameter. Since that parameter is a priori independent of the mass, the angular momentum does not have a one to one relationship with the mass. As an example, the Schwarzschild black hole is a Kerr black hole with J = 0 (or, equivalently, a=0).

Perhpas you are looking for the relationship

$$M^2 >= Q^2 + (S/M)^2$$

where M is the mass of the black hole, Q is the charge, and S is the angular momentum, all in geometric units. S/M is called a in my text, which is MTW's "Gravitation". A body which violates this condition would not be a black hole, but a 'naked singularity'.
 
OK, so this has bugged me for a while about the equivalence principle and the black hole information paradox. If black holes "evaporate" via Hawking radiation, then they cannot exist forever. So, from my external perspective, watching the person fall in, they slow down, freeze, and redshift to "nothing," but never cross the event horizon. Does the equivalence principle say my perspective is valid? If it does, is it possible that that person really never crossed the event horizon? The...
In this video I can see a person walking around lines of curvature on a sphere with an arrow strapped to his waist. His task is to keep the arrow pointed in the same direction How does he do this ? Does he use a reference point like the stars? (that only move very slowly) If that is how he keeps the arrow pointing in the same direction, is that equivalent to saying that he orients the arrow wrt the 3d space that the sphere is embedded in? So ,although one refers to intrinsic curvature...
So, to calculate a proper time of a worldline in SR using an inertial frame is quite easy. But I struggled a bit using a "rotating frame metric" and now I'm not sure whether I'll do it right. Couls someone point me in the right direction? "What have you tried?" Well, trying to help truly absolute layppl with some variation of a "Circular Twin Paradox" not using an inertial frame of reference for whatevere reason. I thought it would be a bit of a challenge so I made a derivation or...
