abstract
We investigate massive scalar perturbations and several characteristics of particle motion in the spacetime of regular black holes arising in four-dimensional quasi-topological gravity. Quasinormal modes are computed using high-order WKB approximations with Pad\'e resummation and verified through time-domain integration. For moderate values of the scalar-field mass, the time-domain profiles confirm the WKB results with excellent accuracy. As the mass increases, the damping rate decreases substantially, indicating the approach to the quasi-resonant regime of long-lived modes. For sufficiently large masses, the late-time signal becomes dominated by oscillatory power-law tails, which mask the quasi-resonant mode in the time-domain profile. In addition, we analyze photon motion and circular geodesics, including the photon-sphere radius, shadow size, Lyapunov exponent, and ISCO characteristics. These quantities exhibit only moderate deviations from their Schwarzschild values, unlike the Hawking temperature of the black hole.

Increasing the mass of a scalar field around a parity-symmetric beyond-Horndeski black hole strongly reduces the damping rate of quasinormal modes while suppressing low-frequency absorption and shifting efficient absorption to higher frequencies.
A unified framework links the generating function for static black holes satisfying g_tt g_rr=-1 in extended quasi-topological gravity to thermodynamic mass and Wald entropy via an effective 2D dilaton theory.
Positive tidal charge in this brane-world black hole lowers the effective potential barrier, pushes massive scalar quasinormal modes toward arbitrarily long lifetimes, and increases transmission and absorption.
Increasing the mass of a perturbing scalar field around Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton black holes strongly suppresses damping in several quasinormal branches, producing quasi-resonant long-lived oscillations.
Applies sixth-order WKB to compute grey-body factors for test fields on generalized Proca black holes with effective de Sitter scale, finding that scalar mass and couplings raise barriers, suppress low-frequency transmission, and affect thermodynamics.
Massive scalar perturbations of de Sitter black holes in generalized Proca theory enter a large-mass regime with linearly growing real frequencies and constant damping rates, without true quasi-resonances, plus an analytic formula and shifts due to black-hole size and Proca hair.
Raising the regularity parameter in this regular black-hole spacetime lowers the single-barrier potentials for all three fields, shifts transmission to lower frequencies, increases absorption cross sections, and produces grey-body factors that agree with lowest-mode QNM reconstructions to roughly 10
Massive scalar quasinormal modes in this DBI-supported regular black hole show higher oscillation frequencies and lower damping as field mass increases, with larger regularity scales producing softer and longer-lived ringing.
Noncommutative parameter θ and scalar mass μ exert opposing influences on quasinormal modes and greybody factors in this modified black hole, with stability confirmed and extreme cases approaching classical Schwarzschild values at high mass.
