Anti-de Sitter-type 2+1 spacetime of a charged rotating mass

The exact charged rotating solution of 2+1 Einstein-Maxwell equations with $\Lambda$ term is obtained and its properties outlined. It generalizes the Cataldo-Cruz-del Campo-Garc{\'\i}a relativistic charged massive black hole on the 2+1 anti-de Sitter cosmological background. We show that rotating solutions correspond to inhomogeneous field equations, thus presence of sources in 2+1 Maxwell's equations cannot be identified with existence of a charge distribution. Instead, these sources are related to the 2+1 Machian 2-form field, and the overall Lagrangian structure of the rotating system is reconstructed.
