In this talk we shall discuss our recent result which establishes that the Schwarzschild family of black holes are linearly stable as solutions to the Einstein vacuum equations when expressed in a generalised wave gauge: all sufficiently regular solutions to the system of equations that result from linearising the Einstein vacuum equations, as expressed in a generalised wave gauge, about a fixed Schwarzschild solution decay at an inverse polynomial rate to the sum of a residual pure gauge and linearised Kerr solution. The result thus complements the recent seminal paper of Dafermos—Holzegel—Rodnianski in a similar vein as to how the work of Lindblad—Rodnianski complemented that of Christodoulou—Klainerman in establishing the nonlinear stability of the Minkowski space.
