Abstract

We study linear scalar perturbations of black holes in two-dimensional (2D) gravity models with a particular emphasis on Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity. We obtain an exact expression of the quasinormal mode frequencies for single horizon black holes in JT gravity and then verify it numerically using the Horowitz-Hubeny method. For a 2D Reissner-Nordstr\"om like solution, we find that the massless scalar wave equation reduces to the confluent Heun equation using which we calculate the Hawking spectra. Finally, we consider the dimensionally reduced Ba\~nados-Teitelboim-Zanelli (BTZ) black hole and obtain the exterior and interior quasinormal modes. The dynamics of a scalar field near the Cauchy horizon mimics the behavior of the same for the usual BTZ black hole, indicating a possible violation of the strong cosmic censorship conjecture in the near extreme limit. However, quantum effects seem to rescue strong cosmic censorship.
