Quasinormal modes correspond well to grey-body factors for vector and tensor perturbations of Schwarzschild-Tangherlini black holes in all dimensions, but fail for scalar l=2 modes in D≥7 because of multiple potential barriers.

abstract
We revisit the quasinormal-mode/greybody factor correspondence for Kerr black holes in the eikonal limit and develop a systematic WKB-based formulation by recasting the radial Teukolsky equation into a Schr\"odinger-type equation with a short-range potential. Building on earlier studies of the correspondence in rotating backgrounds, we extend the analysis to gravitational perturbations and incorporate higher-order WKB corrections beyond the leading eikonal approximation. For gravitational perturbations, the predicted greybody factors are in good agreement with numerical results obtained from the generalized Sasaki-Nakamura equation, with increasing accuracy at large angular quantum number. We also identify the breakdown of the correspondence in the superradiant regime, where the WKB assumptions cease to be valid.

Higher dimensional regular black holes in quasi-topological gravity have suppressed grey-body factors and Hawking radiation compared to singular black holes in general relativity.
In the parametrized quasinormal mode framework, QNMs and GBFs depend on the order and polynomial power of potential modifications, with the QNM-GBF correspondence valid only in limited regimes.
