Quasinormal modes of Kerr-Newman black holes: coupling of electromagnetic and gravitational perturbations

We compute numerically the quasinormal modes of Kerr-Newman black holes in the scalar case, for which the perturbation equations are separable. Then we study different approximations to decouple electromagnetic and gravitational perturbations of the Kerr-Newman metric, computing the corresponding quasinormal modes. Our results suggest that the Teukolsky-like equation derived by Dudley and Finley gives a good approximation to the dynamics of a rotating charged black hole for Q<M/2. Though insufficient to deal with Kerr-Newman based models of elementary particles, the Dudley-Finley equation should be adequate for astrophysical applications.Comment: 13 pages, 3 figures.

Floating body, illumination body, and polytopal approximation

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\Bbb R^{d}$ and $K_{t}$ its floating bodies. There is a polytope with at most $n$ vertices that satisfies $$K_{t} \subset P_{n} \subset K$$ where $$n \leq e^{16d} \frac{vol_{d}(K \setminus K_{t})}{t\ vol_{d}(B_{2}^{d})}$$ Let $K^{t}$ be the illumination bodies of $K$ and $Q_{n}$ a polytope that contains $K$ and has at most $n$ $d-1$-dimensional faces. Then $$vol_{d}(K^{t} \setminus K) \leq cd^{4} vol_{d}(Q_{n} \setminus K)$$ where $$ n \leq \frac{c}{dt} \ vol_{d}(K^{t} \setminus K) $

Letter to George Chase

Dudley tells George to use the money that George will be giving to Dudley when he next visits Vermont for his own use, to be replaced by Dudley when he arrives. Dudley expresses his pride in George.https://digital.kenyon.edu/chase_letters/1109/thumbnail.jp
