Eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of spin-weighted spheroidal harmonics in four and higher dimensions
Open accessAbstract
Spin-weighted spheroidal harmonics are useful in a variety of physical situations, including light scattering, nuclear modeling, signal processing, electromagnetic wave propagation, black hole perturbation theory in four and higher dimensions, quantum field theory in curved space-time and studies of D-branes. We first review analytic and numerical calculations of their eigenvalues, and eigenfunctions in four dimensions, filling gaps in the existing literature when necessary. Then we compute the angular dependence of the spin-weighted spheroidal harmonics corresponding to slowly damped quasinormal mode frequencies of the Kerr black hole, providing numerical tables and approximate formulas for their scalar products. Finally we present an exhaustive analytic and numerical study of scalar spheroidal harmonics in ($n+4$) dimensions.

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.
