  Exact outer boundary conditions for gravitational perturbations of the
Schwarzschild metric feature integral convolution between a time-domain
boundary kernel and each radiative mode of the perturbation. For both axial
(Regge-Wheeler) and polar (Zerilli) perturbations, we study the Laplace
transform of such kernels as an analytic function of (dimensionless) Laplace
frequency. We present numerical evidence indicating that each such
frequency-domain boundary kernel admits a "sum-of-poles" representation. Our
work has been inspired by Alpert, Greengard, and Hagstrom's analysis of
nonreflecting boundary conditions for the ordinary scalar wave equation.
