We develop a novel technique through spectral decompositions to study the gravitational perturbations of a black hole, without needing to decouple the linearized field equations into master equations and separate their radial and angular…

The Teukolsky Master Equation is the basic tool for study of perturbations of the Kerr metric in linear approximation. It admits separation of variables, thus yielding the Teukolsky Radial Equation and the Teukolsky Angular Equation. We…

We present analytic solutions to the Teukolsky equation for massless perturbations of any spin in the 4-dimensional de Sitter background. The angular part of the equation fixes the separation constant to a discrete set and its solution is…

The linear perturbation of a Kerr black hole induced by a rotating massive circular ring is discussed by using the formalism by Teukolsky, Chrzanowski, Cohen and Kegeles. In these formalism, the perturbed Weyl scalars, $\psi_0$ and…

We show that the radial Teukolsky equation (in the frequency domain) with sources that extend to infinity has well-behaved solutions. To prove that, we follow Poisson approach to regularize the non-rotating hole, and extend it to the…

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.…

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…

We discuss a new ringdown frequency mode for vacuum perturbations of the Kerr black hole. We evolve initial data for the vacuum radial Teukolsky equation using a near horizon approximation, and find a frequency mode analogous to that found…
