Abstract: In this work, we derive the global sharp decay, as both a lower and an upper bounds, for the spin $pmmathfraks$ components, which are solutions to the Teukolsky equation, in the black hole exterior and on the event horizon of a slowly rotating Kerr spacetime. These estimates are generalized to any subextreme Kerr background under an integrated local energy decay estimate. Our results apply to the scalar field $(mathfraks=0)$, the Maxwell field $(mathfraks=1)$ and the linearized gravity $(mathfraks=2)$ and confirm the Price's law decay that is conjectured to be sharp. Our analyses rely on a novel global conservation law for the Teukolsky equation, and this new approach can be applied to derive the precise asymptotics for solutions to semilinear wave equations.
