Black hole quasinormal frequencies are complex numbers that encode information on how a black hole relaxes after it has been perturbed and depend on the features of the geometry and on the type of perturbations. On the one hand, the examples studied so far in the literature focused on the case of black hole geometries with singularities in their interior. On the other hand, it is expected that quantum or classical modifications of general relativity may correct the pathological singular behavior of classical black hole solutions. Despite the fact that we do not have at hand a complete theory of quantum gravity, regular black hole solutions can be constructed by coupling gravity to an external form of matter, sometimes modeled by one form or another of nonlinear electrodynamics. It is therefore relevant to compute quasinormal frequencies for these regular solutions and see how differently, from the ordinary ones, regular black holes ring. In this paper, we take a step in this direction and, by computing the quasinormal frequencies, study the quasinormal modes of neutral and charged scalar field perturbations on regular black hole backgrounds in a variety of models.

  1. Bardeen spacetime as quantum corrected black hole: Grey-body factors and quasinormal modes of gravitational perturbations

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Increasing the quantum-correction scale in Bardeen spacetime raises quasinormal frequencies, slows decay, suppresses low-frequency transmission, and reorganizes absorption cross-sections.

  2. Scalar, electromagnetic, and Dirac perturbations of regular black holes constituting primordial dark matter

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Larger DBI regularity scale in an asymptotically flat regular black hole shifts quasinormal frequencies and damping rates downward with only weak change in quality factor, above numerical uncertainty.

  3. Scattering of scalar, electromagnetic, and Dirac fields in an asymptotically flat regular black hole supported by primordial dark matter

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    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 produ...

  4. Massive scalar quasinormal modes of an asymptotically flat regular black hole supported by a phantom Dirac--Born--Infeld field

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    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.

  5. Scalar, electromagnetic, and Dirac perturbations of regular black holes constituting primordial dark matter

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Larger DBI regularity in this regular black hole model reduces quasinormal frequencies and damping rates for scalar, electromagnetic, and Dirac perturbations while the quality factor stays nearly constant, producing a...
