Title

Area spectra vs entropy spectra of various black holes from quasinormal modes
Co-authors Yongjoon Kwon

Abstract

Since the Bekenstein's proposal that a black hole has equally spaced area spectrum, the quasinormal modes as the characteristic modes of a black hole have been used in obtaining the horizon area spectrum of the black hole. We will survey various works in this field. In particular, we will consider the area and entropy spectra of black holes in topologically massive gravity with gravitational Chern-Simons term. We also find that the Kerr black hole has three types of resonance modes which are quasinormal modes (QNM), total transmission modes (TTM), and total reflection modes (TRM). All of these resonances represent highly damped oscillations and only depend on the black hole parameters which are mass, charge and angular momentum of the black hole. We propose that all of these modes should be used in quantizing the black hole.
