Tensorial perturbations and stability of spherically symmetric d-dimensional black holes in string theory

Abstract

We compute the tensorial perturbations to a general spherically symmetric metric in d dimensions with string-theoretical corrections quadratic in the Riemann tensor, from which we derive their respective potential. We use this result to study the stability of corresponding black hole solutions under such perturbations.
