Black holes and gravitational waves. III - The resonant frequencies of rotating holes
Abstract
The free oscillations of rotating black holes are studied. Values of the complex resonant frequencies are given as functions of the Kerr parameter a for a variety of spherical harmonic indices l and m. The Appendix uses analytic methods to show that the maximally rotating Kerr solution is, in some sense, marginally unstable.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
