High-order expansions of the Detweiler-Whiting singular field in Kerr   spacetime
  In a previous paper, we computed expressions for the Detweiler-Whiting singular field of point scalar, electromagnetic and gravitational charges following a geodesic of the Schwarzschild spacetime. We now extend this to the case of equatorial orbits in Kerr spacetime, using coordinate and covariant approaches to compute expansions of the singular field in scalar, electromagnetic and gravitational cases. As an application, we give the calculation of previously unknown mode-sum regularization parameters. We also propose a new application of high-order approximations to the singular field, showing how they may be used to compute $m$-mode regularization parameters for use in the $m$-mode effective source approach to self-force calculations.
