In this work we explore some aspects of the spectral instability of back hole quasi-normal modes, using a specific model as an example. The model is that of a small bump perturbation to the effective potential of linear axial gravitational waves on a Schwarzschild background, and our focus is on three different aspects of the instability: identifying and distinguishing between the two different types of instabilities studied previously in the literature, quantifying the size of the perturbations applied to the system and testing the validity of the pseudospectral numerical method in providing a convergent result for this measure, and finally, relating the size and other features of the perturbation to the degree of destabilisation of the spectrum.

  1. Spectrum instability and greybody factor stability for parabolic approximation of Regge-Wheeler potential

    gr-qc 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Replacing the Regge-Wheeler potential by piecewise parabolas makes quasinormal-mode spectra unstable, with long-lived overtones, while greybody factors stay close to the exact Schwarzschild result.

  2. Exceptional line and pseudospectrum in black hole spectroscopy

    gr-qc 2025-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A continuous line of exceptional points exists in the three-parameter space of a Gaussian-bump-perturbed Regge-Wheeler potential, with pseudospectral contour sizes scaling as ε^{1/2} at second-order EPs.
