  The optical Hall conductivity and the polar Kerr angle are calculated as
functions of temperature for a two-dimensional chiral p_x+ip_y superconductor,
where the time-reversal symmetry is spontaneously broken. The theoretical
estimate for the polar Kerr angle agrees by the order of magnitude with the
recent experimental measurement in Sr2RuO4 by Xia et al. cond-mat/0607539. The
theory predicts that the Kerr angle is proportional to the square of the
superconducting energy gap and is inversely proportional to the cube of
frequency, which can be verified experimentally.
