Static and Dynamic perturbations of scalar DBI analogue of a black hole

Perturbations around a spherically symmetric solution of the scalar Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) theory obey the equation of motion of a massless scalar field in a curved background with black hole-like properties like finite temperature and an event horizon with zero speed of propagation of information (a black hole analogue). After reviewing some properties of the background geometry for the propagations, we investigate the solutions considering static and dynamic regimes. In the former case we obtain the so-called Love numbers, or more generally scalar polarizability. In the latter case, we employ boundary conditions analogous to the computation of quasi-normal modes, and argue that the background geometry acts as a classical high-pass filter. We therefore provide further evidence that the scalar black hole analogues can be analyzed similarly to a black hole.
