Reconstruction of black hole metric perturbations from the Weyl curvature

Perturbation theory of rotating black holes is usually described in terms of Weyl scalars ψ4 and ψ0, which each satisfy Teukolsky's complex master wave equation and respectively represent outgoing and ingoing radiation. On the other hand metric perturbations of a Kerr hole can be described in t...
