Abstract
We study the wave equations with the various spins on the background of the Kerr metric deformed by a function of the radial coordinate, on which background we have studied the gravitational-wave equations previously. We obtain the unified expression of the Teukolsky-like master equations and the corresponding radial equations with various spins. We find that taking the separable gauge introduced in previous study simplifies the unified form. We also discuss the structure of the radial equation as an ordinary differential equation, such as the existence of the regular and the irregular singularities of the equation and the behavior of the solution around each singularity.
