We extend our investigation on Couch-Torrence conformal inversions of BHs and D-branes in various directions. We analyse asymptotically flat rotating charged BHs in D = 4, in particular extremal rotating BHs in STU supergavity, and find invariance for special choices of the charges. Due to the dependence of the critical radii on the impact parameter(s), the relation between the scattering angle for geodesics outside the photonhalo and the in-spiralling angle for geodesics inside the photon-halo is modified by the inclusion of a boundary term. We also consider rotating BHs in D = 5 and rotating D3branes and find invariance under generalised Couch-Torrence inversions for special choices of the angular momenta. Alas we don't find any similar symmetry for smooth horizonless geometries. Moreover, relying on the surprising connection between classical BH perturbation theory and quantum Seiberg-Witten curves for N = 2 SYM theories, we study scalar wave equations in these backgrounds and identify the near super-radiant modes produced in near-extremal BH mergers. Finally, we study scalar fluctuations around Kerr-Newman BHs in AdS 4 and find stringent conditions for generalised Couch-Torrence symmetry that are relaxed in the extremal case or by allowing a rescaling of the wave function.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
