| contents | Electromagnetic observations reveal that almost all galaxies have supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at their centers, but their properties, especially their spins, are not fully understood. Some of the authors have recently shown [Oshita and Tsuna (2023)] that rapid spins of $>0.9$, inferred for masses around $10^7\ M_\odot$ from observations of local SMBHs and cosmological simulations, source {\it long-lived} ringdowns that enhance the precision of black hole spectroscopy to test gravity in the near-extreme Kerr spacetime. In this work, we estimate the statistical errors in the SMBH mass-spin inference in anticipation of the LISA's detection of extreme mass-ratio mergers. We show that for rapidly spinning SMBHs, more precise mass and spin measurements are expected due to the excitations of higher angular modes. For a near-extremal SMBH of mass $10^7M_\odot$ merging with a smaller BH with mass ratio $10^{-3}$ at a luminosity distance of $\lesssim 10\:\mathrm{Gpc}$ (redshift $z \lesssim 1.37$), the measurement errors in the mass and spin of the SMBH would be $\sim 1\:\mathrm{\%}$ and $\sim 10^{-1}\:\mathrm{\%}$ respectively. |
