Higher-dimensional non-extremal Reissner-Nordstrom black holes, scalar perturbation and superradiance: an analytical study (2109.04035v1)

Abstract: The superradiant stability of higher dimensional non-extremal Reissner-Nordstrom black holes under charged massive scalar perturbation is analytically studied. We extend an analytical method developed by one of the authors in the extremal Reissner-Nordstrom black hole cases to non-extremal cases. Using the new analytical method, we revisit four-dimensional Reissner-Nordstrom black hole case and obtain that four-dimensional Reissner-Nordstrom black hole is superradiantly stable, which is consistent with results in previous works. We then analytically prove that the five-dimensional Reissner-Nordstrom black holes are also superradiantly stable under charged massive scalar perturbation. Our result implies that all higher dimensional non-extremal Reissner-Nordstrom black holes may be superradiantly stable under charged massive scalar perturbation.
