Perturbations of Kerr spacetime are typically studied with the Teukolsky formalism, in which a pair of invariant components of the perturbed Weyl tensor are expressed in terms of separable modes that satisfy ordinary differential equations.…

The gravitational perturbations of a rotating Kerr black hole are notoriously complicated, even at the linear level. In 1973, Teukolsky showed that their physical degrees of freedom are encoded in two gauge-invariant Weyl curvature scalars…

Perturbation theory of rotating black holes is usually described in terms of Weyl scalars $\psi_4$ and $\psi_0$, which each satisfy Teukolsky's complex master wave equation and respectively represent outgoing and ingoing radiation. On the…
