Abstract
In this chapter we describe the evolution of physical fields in the external field of a spherical black hole. Once this evolution is known, one can successfully study various processes in black hole physics. Among such processes there are, for example, the radiation of gravitational, electromagnetic, and other waves by particles falling on the black hole, nonspherical gravitational collapse giving rise to a black hole, scattering of various types of waves falling on the black hole from the outside, and some others.
