abstract

In previous work [1] we proposed an improvement of the WKB-based semianalytic technique of Iyer and Will for calculation of the quasiormal modes of black holes by constructing the Pad\'e approximants of the formal series for $\omega^{2}.$ It has been demonstrated that (within the domain of applicability) the diagonal Pad\'e transforms $\mathcal{P}_{6}^{6}$ and $\mathcal{P}_{7}^{6}$ are always in a very good agreement with the numerical results. In this paper we present a further extension of the method. We show that it is possible to reproduce many known numerical results with a great accuracy (or even exactly) if the Pad\'e transforms are constructed from the perturbative series of a really high order. In our calculations the order depends on the problem but it never exceeds 700. For example, the frequencies of the gravitational mode $l=2,$ $n=0$ calculated with the aid of the Pad\'e approximants and within the framework of the continued fractions method agree to 24 decimal places. The use of such a large number of terms is necessary as the stabilization of the quasinormal frequencies can be slow. Our results reveal some unexpected features of the WKB-based approximations and may shed some fresh light on the problem of overtones.

  1. Resumming Kerr Quasinormal-Mode Frequencies: Accuracy and Breakdown Near Extremality

    gr-qc 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Padé-resummed high-order WKB yields sub-10^{-7} Kerr QNM errors for damped modes up to a=0.99, but breaks down for zero-damped modes because near-horizon poles spoil the local peak expansion.

  2. The shadow and quasinormal modes of the asymptotically flat hairy black holes with a dilaton potential

    gr-qc 2025-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    For exact asymptotically flat hairy charged black holes with a dilaton potential, the shadow radius, photon-orbit Lyapunov exponent, and scalar quasinormal frequencies are computed, showing strong coupling dependence ...

  3. Wave and particle probes of a regular T-duality-inspired black hole with gravitational self-energy

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Increasing zero-point length makes photon and ISCO orbits more compact in ADM units while heavier scalars raise oscillation frequency and suppress damping on this regular self-energy black hole.

  4. Gravitational perturbations of a regular T-duality inspired black hole: Quasinormal modes, excitation factors, and time-domain evolution

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Gravitational quasinormal-mode frequencies of a T-duality-inspired regular black hole are computed, showing the zero-point length makes the ringdown oscillate faster and alters damping non-monotonically.

  5. Long-lived quasinormal frequencies for regular black hole supported by the Einasto profile in the presence of the magnetic field

    gr-qc 2026-03 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    For Einasto-supported regular black holes, larger effective scalar mass and certain halo parameters suppress the quasinormal damping rate, producing long-lived modes and shifting grey-body factors toward higher frequencies.

  6. Connection Between the Shadow Radius and Quasinormal Frequencies for Black Holes in STVG with Perfect Fluid Dark Matter

    gr-qc 2026-03 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    In STVG with PFDM, eikonal QNM real frequencies equal multipole number over shadow radius, so shadow size and ringdown are dual photon-sphere observables.
