 Solution

An ergoregion of a stationary spacetime is where the stationary Killing vector field, normalized as time translation at infinity, is spacelike; a fixed-coordinate stationary observer cannot remain timelike there. For the Kerr metric, $k^2=-(1-2Mr/\Sigma )$, so the outer stationary-limit surface isFor a subextremal rotating hole $r_{\mathrm{E}}\ge r_{+}=M+\sqrt{M^2-a^2}$, with equality only at the poles. At the equator $r_{\mathrm{E}}=2M>r_{+}$. The ergosphere touches the horizon on the rotation axis and is outside it elsewhere. Its boundary is not the horizon, whose generator is $k+{\Omega }_{H}m$.

The drawing uses oblate Cartesian coordinates to display the intersection and is not an isometric embedding of the spatial geometry.
