Dark matter density can be significantly enhanced by the supermassive black hole at the galactic center, leading to a structure called dark matter spike. Dark matter spike may change the spacetime properties of black holes that constitute deviations from GR black holes. Based on these interesting background, we construct a set of solutions of black holes in a dark matter spike under the Newtonian approximation and full relativity. Combining the mass model of M87, we study the quasinormal modes of black holes in the scalar field and axial gravitational perturbation, then compared them with Schwarzschild black hole. Besides, the impacts of dark matter on the quasinormal mode of black holes have been studied in depth. In particular, in the axial gravitational perturbation, our results show that the impacts of dark matter spike on the quasinormal mode of black holes can reach up to $10^{-4}$. These new features from quasinormal mode of black holes under the Newtonian approximation and full relativity may provide some help for the establishment of the final dark matter model, and provide a new thought for the indirect detection of dark matter.

  1. Charged black holes embedded in matter with anisotropic pressure: Horizon Structure and Quasinormal Mode Spectra

    gr-qc 2026-07 accept novelty 6.5

    Anisotropic fluid around a charged black hole (Kiselev metric) produces long-lived scalar quasinormal modes, avoided crossings, and spectral reorganization, computed via an extended Leaver method with automatic differ...

  2. Black hole spacetimes with dark matter spikes: Energy-momentum tensor and backreaction effects

    gr-qc 2025-11 conditional novelty 6.0

    A dark-matter spike built from the full orbital motion of its particles has ~50% more energy density near the black hole and produces metric deviations ~2.5 times larger than mass-only models.

  3. Matter environments around black holes: geodesics, light rings, and ultracompact configurations

    gr-qc 2025-12 conditional novelty 5.0

    Dark-matter halos modeled as Einstein clusters generically move the ISCO inward and the light ring outward, and ultracompact halos can add extra light rings, trapped modes, and secondary horizons.

  4. Beyond general relativity: gravitational waves in non-minimally coupled theories

    gr-qc 2025-10 conditional novelty 5.0

    A generalized propagation parameterization for gravitational-wave strains is extended to O(H²) and O(H′), then mapped to Kalb-Ramond, axion-dilaton–Chern-Simons–Gauss-Bonnet, and U(1) dark-photon models.

  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

    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. Long-lived quasinormal modes and grey-body factors of supermassive black holes with a dark matter halo

    gr-qc 2025-11 conditional novelty 4.0

    Massive scalar fields around a Schwarzschild black hole with a dark matter halo ring longer as field mass grows, while realistic halo parameters leave quasinormal frequencies and grey-body factors almost unchanged.
