摘要
We investigate quadratic quasinormal mode coupling in black hole spacetime through numerical experiments of single perturbed black holes using both numerical relativity and second-order black hole perturbation theory. Focusing on the dominant l 1/4 jmj 1/4 2 quadrupolar modes, we find good agreement (within similar to 10%) between these approaches, with discrepancies attributed to truncation error and uncertainties from mode fitting. Our results align with earlier studies extracting the coupling coefficients from select binary black hole merger simulations, showing consistency for the same remnant spins. Notably, the coupling coefficient is insensitive to a diverse range of initial data, including configurations that led to a significant (up to 5%) increase in the remnant black hole mass. These findings present opportunities for testing the nonlinear dynamics of general relativity with ground-based gravitational wave observatories. Lastly, we provide evidence of a bifurcation in coupling coefficients between counterrotating and corotating quasinormal modes as black hole spin increases.
