We calculate both analytically and numerically the quasi-normal modes of scalar perturbations. In the case of small black holes we find discontinuities of the quasi-normal modes spectrum at the critical temperature and we argue that this is evidence of a second-order phase transition.23 pages, 17 figures, published versionHigh Energy Physics - TheoryAstrophysicsGeneral Relativity and Quantum CosmologyDiscontinuities in Scalar Perturbations of Topological Black Holestext
