This paper studies the formation and evolution of binary supermassive black holes (SMBHs)
in rotating galactic nuclei, focusing on the role of stellar dynamics. We present the first N-
body simulations that follow the evolution of the SMBHs from kiloparsec separations all the
way to their final relativistic coalescence, and that can robustly be scaled to real galaxies.
The N-body code includes post-Newtonian $(\cal {P\! N\!}) $
