Purely imaginary polar resonances of rapidly-rotating Kerr black holes

Abstract

We prove the existence of a unique family of non-oscillatory (purely-imaginary) polar quasinormal resonances of rapidly-rotating Kerr black holes. These purely imaginary resonances can be expressed in the compact form: wn=-i2*pi*TBH*(l+1+n), where TBH is the black-hole temperature, l is the spheroidal harmonic index of the mode, and n=0,1,2,... is the resonance parameter. It is shown that our analytical results for the black-hole resonance spectrum agree with new numerical data that recently appeared in the literature.
