Abstract

Based on the work of Chen, L\"u and Pope, we derive expressions for the D6D\geq 6 dimensional metric for Kerr-(A)dS black holes with two independent rotation parameters and all others set equal to zero: a10,a20,a3=a4=...=0a_1\neq 0, a_2\neq0, a_3=a_4=...=0. The Klein-Gordon equation is then explicitly separated on this background. For D6D\geq 6 this separation results in a radial equation coupled to two generalized spheroidal angular equations. We then develop a full numerical approach that utilizes the Asymptotic Iteration Method (AIM) to find radial Quasi-Normal Modes (QNMs) of doubly rotating flat Myers-Perry black holes for slow rotations. We also develop perturbative expansions for the angular quantum numbers in powers of the rotation parameters up to second order.
