abstract

We adopt Leaver's method to determine quasi normal frequencies of the Schwarzschild black hole in higher (D >= 10) dimensions. In D-dimensional Schwarzschild metric, when D increases, more and more singularities, spaced uniformly on the unit circle |r|=1, approach the horizon at r = r_h = 1. Thus, a solution satisfying the outgoing wave boundary condition at the horizon must be continued to some mid point and only then the continued fraction condition can be applied. This prescription is general and applies to all cases for which, due to regular singularities on the way from the point of interest to the irregular singularity, Leaver's method in its original setting breaks down. We illustrate the method calculating gravitational vector and tensor quasinormal frequencies of the Schwarzschild black hole in D=11 and D=10 dimensions. We also give the details for the D=9 case, considered in gr-qc/0511064.

Quasinormal modes of black holes and black branes

gr-qc · 2009-05-19 · unverdicted · novelty 2.0

Quasinormal modes are eigenmodes of dissipative gravitational systems whose spectra encode near-equilibrium transport coefficients in dual quantum field theories and enable tests of general relativity through gravitational wave observations.
