DESCRIPTION:The black hole stability problem is a central problem in mathe
 matical general relativity. In the context of the stability problem in hig
 her dimensions\, I will present a theorem concerning decay of linear\, sca
 lar perturbations on a family of five-dimensional stationary\, asymptotica
 lly flat vacuum black holes\, called black rings. Such result strongly sug
 gests that the stability properties of black holes in five dimensions rema
 rkably differ from those observed in dimension four. In particular\, the t
 heorem supports the expectation that black rings are dynamically unstable 
 to generic perturbations\, complementing previous works in this direction.
