abstract

We study the quantum gravitational effects in spherically symmetric black hole spacetimes. The effective quantum spacetime felt by a point-like test mass is constructed by ``renormalization group improving'' the Schwarzschild metric. The key ingredient is the running Newton constant which is obtained from the exact evolution equation for the effective average action. The conformal structure of the quantum spacetime depends on its ADM-mass M and it is similar to that of the classical Reissner-Nordstrom black hole. For M larger than, equal to, and smaller than a certain critical mass $M_{\rm cr}$ the spacetime has two, one and no horizon(s), respectively. Its Hawking temperature, specific heat capacity and entropy are computed as a function of M. It is argued that the black hole evaporation stops when M approaches $M_{\rm cr}$ which is of the order of the Planck mass. In this manner a ``cold'' soliton-like remnant with the near-horizon geometry of $AdS_2\times S^2$ is formed. As a consequence of the quantum effects, the classical singularity at r=0 is either removed completely or it is at least much milder than classically; in the first case the quantum spacetime has a smooth de Sitter core which would be in accord with the cosmic censorship hypothesis even if $M<M_{\rm cr}$.

All $2D$ generalised dilaton theories from $d\geq 4$ gravities

hep-th · 2026-03-06 · conditional · novelty 7.0

Generic 2D Horndeski theories arise from dimensional reduction of d≥4 gravities, yielding a Birkhoff theorem for quasi-topological gravities where static spherically symmetric solutions satisfy g_tt g_rr = -1 and are determined algebraically.

Tidal Love numbers for regular black holes

gr-qc · 2025-12-05 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Tidal Love numbers of regular black holes are generically nonzero, model-dependent, and can acquire logarithmic scale dependence at higher perturbative orders.

Consistency in the Quantum-Improved Charged Black Holes

gr-qc · 2026-05-14 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Thermodynamic consistency for quantum-improved Reissner-Nordström black holes permits arbitrary radial dependence in both Newton and electromagnetic couplings, while equation-action consistency requires an extra quantum energy-momentum tensor and specific properties for the Newton coupling.

Dust collapse in asymptotic safety: a path to regular black holes

gr-qc · 2023-08-21 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Dust collapse in asymptotically safe gravity produces singularity-free black hole spacetimes via a matter-geometry coupling χ that vanishes the gravitational constant at high energies, with exterior fixed by junction conditions.

Testing black hole metrics with binary black hole inspirals

Constraints on deviations from Kerr black hole metrics are derived from binary black hole inspiral waveforms modeled with effective one-body methods and analyzed via the parameterized post-Einsteinian framework.
