The late time response of vacuum black holes in General Relativity is notoriously governed by power law tails arising from the wave scattering off the curved spacetime geometry far from the black hole. While it is known that such tails are…

We discuss the late-time behaviour of a dynamically perturbed Kerr black hole. We present analytic results for near extreme Kerr black holes that show that the large number of virtually undamped quasinormal modes that exist for nonzero…

Nonlinear effects play a fundamental role in the late-time ringdown of black holes, with direct implications for gravitational-wave observations. For massive fields, these dynamics become richer, yet their nonlinear signatures remain poorly…

We investigate the asymptotic tail behavior of massive scalar fields in Schwarzschild background. It is shown that the oscillatory tail of the scalar field has the decay rate of $t^{-5/6}$ at asymptotically late times, and the oscillation…

In recent work of Allen at. al., heuristic and numerical arguments were put forth to suggest that boundary value problems for black hole evolution, where an appropriate Sommerfeld radiation condition is imposed, would fail to produce Price…

We show that both the interior region $r<M-\sqrt{M^2-a^2}$ of a Kerr black hole and the $a^2>M^2$ Kerr naked singularity admit unstable solutions of the Teukolsky equation for any value of the spin weight. For every harmonic number there is…

We consider the massive scalar field equation $\Box_{g_{RN}} \phi = m^2 \phi$ on any subextremal Reissner--Nordstr\"{o}m exterior metric $g_{RN}$. We prove that solutions with localized initial data decay pointwise-in-time at the polynomial…
