We present an analytic method for calculating the late-time tails of a linear scalar field outside a Kerr black hole. We give the asymptotic behavior at timelike infinity (for fixed $r$), at future null infinity, and along the event horizon…

We prove the global leading-order late-time asymptotic behaviour of solutions to inhomogeneous wave equations on dynamical black hole exterior backgrounds that settle down to Schwarzschild backgrounds with arbitrarily small decay rates. In…

We derive the precise late-time asymptotics for solutions to the wave equation on extremal Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes and explicitly express the leading-order coefficients in terms of the initial data. Our method is based on purely…

Outside a black hole, perturbation fields die off in time as $1/t^n$. For spherical holes $n=2\ell+3$ where $\ell$ is the multipole index. In the nonspherical Kerr spacetime there is no coordinate-independent meaning of "multipole," and a…

We consider the decay rate for scalar fields in Kerr spacetime. We consider pure initial (azimuthal) multipoles $\ell'$ with respect to the class which includes Boyer-Lindquist coordinates, and focus attention on the decay rate of the…
