It has been shown, via specific examples and a pseudospectrum analysis, that the black hole quasinormal spectra are unstable. The implication of such a result for gravitational-wave physics and of our understanding of black holes is, still,…

Linearized perturbations of a Schwarzschild black hole are described, for each angular momentum $\ell$, by the well-studied discrete quasinormal modes (QNMs), and in addition a continuum. The latter is characterized by a cut strength…

We have studied the scalar field perturbations on six-dimensional ultra-spinning black holes. We have numerically calculated the quasinormal modes of rotating black holes. Our results suggest that such perturbations are stable.

When a classical black hole is perturbed, its relaxation is governed by a set of quasinormal modes with complex frequencies \omega= \omega_R+i\omega_I. We show that this behavior is the same as that of a collection of damped harmonic…
