Abstract
The Hod conjecture proposes that the asymptotic quasinormal frequencies determine the entropy quantum of a black hole. Considering the Maggiore modification of this conjecture, we calculate the entropy spectra of general, single horizon, asymptotically flat black holes in two-dimensional dilaton gravity. We also compute the entropy quanta of the two-dimensional Witten and AdS 2 black holes. Using the results for the entropy quanta of these two-dimensional black holes, we discuss whether the produced values are generic. Finally we extend the results on the entropy spectra of other black holes.
