Near-degenerate resonance poles arise widely in open-wave systems. For gravitational-wave ringdowns, inference is performed on finite time windows where neighboring quasinormal modes can be spectrally close; the waveform is then dominated…
Scalar, vector and tensor perturbations on the Kerr spacetime are governed by equations that can be solved by separation of variables, but the same is not true in generic stationary and axisymmetric geometries. This complicates the…

We show that nearly extremal Kerr black holes have two distinct sets of quasinormal modes, which we call zero-damping modes (ZDMs) and damped modes (DMs). The ZDMs exist for all harmonic indices $l$ and $m \ge 0$, and their frequencies…
