abstract

We compute the quasinormal frequencies of the Kerr black hole using a continued fraction method. The continued fraction method first proposed by Leaver is still the only known method stable and accurate for the numerical determination of the Kerr quasinormal frequencies. We numerically obtain not only the slowly but also the rapidly damped quasinormal frequencies and analyze the peculiar behavior of these frequencies at the Kerr limit. We also calculate the algebraically special frequency first identified by Chandrasekhar and confirm that it coincide with the $n=8$ quasinormal frequency only at the Schwarzschild limit.

  1. Pole Skipping, Avoided Crossing, and Resonant Excitation in Kerr Quasinormal Modes near Algebraically Special Frequencies

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Kerr QNM anomalies near algebraically special frequencies arise from avoided crossings with resonant excitation and pole skipping due to quasinormal-Matsubara pole-zero cancellations.

  2. Exceptional Points and Resonance in Black Hole Ringdown

    gr-qc 2025-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    An exceptional-point framework for black-hole ringdown characterizes resonances near avoided crossings, demonstrates enhanced mode contributions in the time domain, and identifies the EP frequency as the physically re...

  3. Test-Field vs Physical Quasi-Normal Modes in Scalar-Tensor Theories

    gr-qc 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Test-field QNM spectra of BCL black holes deviate strongly from physical axial gravitational QNM spectra at high overtones, while fundamental modes remain close.

  4. Extended parameterized spin expansion formalism for ringdown analysis with GW250114

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Simultaneously sampling the EFT scaling index p̃ and length scale ℓ̃ in ParSpec shows p̃ is prior-dominated and the ℓ̃ ~ 83 km bound is mostly prior geometry.

  5. Two-scalar-field $f(R)$ Thick Branes, Gravitational Resonances and Quasinormal Modes

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    In ghost-free two-scalar f(R) thick branes, internal structure produces no narrow real-axis tensor resonances; quasinormal modes are broad with quality factors 0.9-1.9.
