We give a new derivation of the quasinormal frequencies of Schwarzschild black holes in d>=4 and Reissner-Nordstrom black holes in d=4, in the limit of infinite damping. For Schwarzschild in d>=4 we find that the asymptotic real part is T_Hawking.log(3) for scalar perturbations and for some gravitational perturbations; this confirms a result previously obtained by other means in the case d=4. For Reissner-Nordstrom in d=4 we find a specific generally aperiodic behavior for the quasinormal frequencies, both for scalar perturbations and for electromagnetic-gravitational perturbations. The formulae are obtained by studying the monodromy of the perturbation analytically continued to the complex plane; the analysis depends essentially on the behavior of the potential in the "unphysical" region near the black hole singularity.

  1. Dynamical Love Numbers for Black Holes and Beyond from Shell Effective Field Theory

    hep-th 2025-12 accept novelty 8.0 of 10

    A shell-based EFT computes scalar Love numbers for Schwarzschild black holes through O(G^9) and conjectures an all-orders Riemann-zeta structure.

  2. Imprint of the black hole singularity on thermal two-point functions

    hep-th 2025-10 unverdicted novelty 8.0 of 10

    Thermal two-point functions in holographic AdS black holes receive exponentially small non-perturbative corrections controlled by null geodesics bouncing off the singularity.

  3. OPE = QNM

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.5 of 10

    OPE and QNM representations of the mixed retarded correlator overlap in complex time, giving an explicit map, sum rules, and new QNM asymptotics for large-N thermal CFTs.

  4. Excitation region of Kerr black hole quasinormal modes from Stokes geometry

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The excitation radius of Kerr quasinormal modes is identified with the anti-Stokes line's intersection with the real axis, matching numerical QNM-plus-tail convergence tests at low and intermediate spins.

  5. Spectral instability of parametrized black hole quasinormal modes in the high-overtone limit via the exact WKB analysis

    gr-qc 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Constant 1/r⁴-or-higher parametrized corrections to the Regge–Wheeler potential drive the real part of high-overtone QNM frequencies to diverge (e.g., like N^{1/5}), unlike Schwarzschild.

  6. Gravitational Bound State Perturbations Inside Black Holes and Isospectrality

    gr-qc 2025-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Polar perturbations inside Schwarzschild have ℓ−1 bound states; ℓ−2 of them are exactly isospectral to axial bound states, and the extra ground state is the algebraically special mode, yielding ΔA = 16π l_Pl².

    The spectral duality relation, previously found for 3d CFTs and 4d black holes, is shown to hold for meromorphic thermal two-point correlators in any dimension and for correlators related by double-trace deformations,...

  9. Photon rings in a holographic toy model

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In warped AdS3 black holes, the eikonal quasinormal-mode spectrum is governed exactly by the photon ring's orbital frequency and Lyapunov exponent, with different boundary conditions picking out the outer or inner ring.

    Near-extremal Kerr-Newman black holes host exceptional lines of degenerate (ℓ,m)=(1,1) scalar overtones that induce spectral permutations and link to zero-damping/damped mode branching.
