For any cosmological constant $\Lambda=-3/\ell^2<0$ and any $\alpha<9/4$, we find a Kerr-AdS spacetime $(\mathcal M,g_{\mathrm{KAdS}})$, in which the Klein-Gordon equation $\Box_{g_{\mathrm{KAdS}}}\psi+\alpha/\ell^2\psi=0$ has an…
In this paper we consider the possible existence of unstable axisymmetric modes in Kerr space times, resulting from exponentially growing solutions of the Teukolsky equation. We describe a transformation that casts the radial equation that…
A Kerr-de Sitter black hole is a solution $(M,g_{\Lambda,\mathfrak{m},\mathfrak{a}})$ of the Einstein vacuum equations with cosmological constant $\Lambda>0$. It describes a black hole with mass $\mathfrak{m}>0$ and specific angular…
The resonant mode spectrum of the Kerr-Newman spacetime is presently unknown. These modes, called the quasinormal modes, play a central role in determining the stability of Kerr-Newman black holes and their response to perturbations. We…
We consider the perturbed covariant wave equation $\Box_{g_{M,a}} \Psi = \varepsilon \mathbf{B} \Psi$ on the exterior of a fixed subextremal Kerr spacetime $\left(\mathcal{M},g_{M,a}\right)$. Here $\mathbf{B}$ is a suitably regular first…
We prove that solutions to linear wave equations in a subextremal Kerr-de Sitter spacetime have asymptotic expansions in quasinormal modes up to a decay order given by the normally hyperbolic trapping, extending the existing results. The…
For any sub-extremal Kerr spacetime with non-zero angular momentum, we find an open family of non-zero masses for which there exist smooth, finite energy, and exponentially growing solutions to the corresponding Klein-Gordon equation. If…
We prove that there are no non-stationary (with respect to the Hawking vectorfield) real mode solutions to the Teukolsky equations on all $(3+1)$-dimensional subextremal Kerr-anti-de Sitter spacetimes. We further prove that stationary…
We prove that there are no exponentially growing modes nor modes on the real axis for the Teukolsky equation on Kerr black hole spacetimes, both in the extremal and subextremal case. We also give a quantitative refinement of mode stability.…
We give a quantitative refinement and simple proofs of mode stability type statements for the wave equation on Kerr backgrounds in the full sub-extremal range (|a| < M). As an application, we are able to quantitatively control the energy…
In this paper, we prove energy and Morawetz estimates for solutions to the scalar wave equation in spacetimes with metrics that are perturbations, compatible with nonlinear applications, of Kerr metrics in the full subextremal range.…
We prove global existence, boundedness and decay for small data solutions $\psi$ to a general class of quasilinear wave equations on Kerr black hole backgrounds in the full sub-extremal range $|a|<M$. The method extends our previous…
The mode stability of the Kerr black hole in four dimensions was demonstrated by Whiting in 1989, by separating the Teukolsky equation that describes gravitational perturbations and then transforming the radial and angular equations in such…
Quantitative versions of mode stability type statements for the wave equation on Kerr-Newman black holes are proven for the full sub-extremal range. The mode stability result on the real axis is then applied to prove integrated local energy…
Let $(\mathcal{M}^{3+1},g)$ be a real analytic, stationary and asymptotically flat spacetime with a non-empty ergoregion $\mathscr{E}$ and no future event horizon $\mathcal{H}^{+}$. On such spacetimes, Friedman provided a heuristic argument…
This paper is motivated by the problem of the nonlinear stability of the Kerr solution for axially symmetric perturbations. We consider a model problem concerning the axially symmetric perturbations of a wave map $\Phi$ defined from a fixed…
We prove the existence of instabilities for the geometric linear wave equation on extremal Kerr spacetime backgrounds, which describe stationary black holes rotating at their maximally allowed angular velocity. These instabilities can be…
It has been suggested that the spectrum of quasinormal modes of rotating black holes is unstable against additional potential terms in the perturbation equation, as the operator associated with the equation is non-self-adjoint. We point out…
We show that both the interior region $r<M-\sqrt{M^2-a^2}$ of a Kerr black hole and the $a^2>M^2$ Kerr naked singularity admit unstable solutions of the Teukolsky equation for any value of the spin weight. For every harmonic number there is…
We prove global existence and decay for small-data solutions to a class of quasilinear wave equations on a wide variety of asymptotically flat spacetime backgrounds, allowing in particular for the presence of horizons, ergoregions and…
