Analytic formula for quasinormal modes in the near-extreme Kerr-Newman–de Sitter spacetime governed by a non-Pöschl-Teller potential

Abstract

Quasinormal modes of scalar, electromagnetic, and gravitational fields in the extreme Schwarzschild-de Sitter background are known to be expressed in analytic form as eigenvalues of the P\"oschl-Teller wavelike equation. We show that perturbations of fermionic fields (given by Dirac and Rarita-Schwinger equations) do not lead to the P\"oschl-Teller effective potential. Nevertheless, using the Frobenius method we find quasinormal modes analytically in this case as well. We write down the analytical formula for quasinormal frequencies of the near-extreme Schwarzschild-de Sitter black holes, which is valid for both bosonic and fermionic fields. We further extend the analysis to the case of charged rotating black holes and find a general analytical formula for quasinormal modes of the fields of various spin for the near extreme Kerr-Newman-de Sitter spacetime.
