Abstract

Using the monodromy method we calculate the asymptotic quasinormal frequencies of an electromagnetic field moving in D-dimensional Schwarzschild and Schwarzschild de Sitter black holes (D ≥  4). For the D-dimensional Schwarzschild anti-de Sitter black hole we also compute these frequencies with a similar method. Moreover, we calculate the electromagnetic normal modes of the D-dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime.
