We present a thorough analysis of the quasinormal (QN) behavior associated with the decay of scalar, electromagnetic, and gravitational perturbations of Schwarzschild black holes in anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetimes. As is known, the AdS QN spectrum crucially depends on the relative size of the black hole to the AdS radius. There are three different types of behavior depending on whether the black hole is large, intermediate, or small. The results of previous works, concerning lower overtones for large black holes, are completed here by obtaining higher overtones for all three black hole regimes. There are two major conclusions that one can draw from this work: First, asymptotically for high overtones, all the modes are evenly spaced, and this holds for all three types of regime, large, intermediate, and small black holes, independently of l, where l is the quantum number characterizing the angular distribution; second, the spacing between modes is apparently universal in that it does not depend on the field; i.e., scalar, electromagnetic, and gravitational QN modes all have the same spacing for high overtones. We are also able to prove why scalar and gravitational perturbations are isospectral, asymptotically for high overtones, by introducing appropriate superpartner potentials.
