Accounting for the minimal mass spread of primordial black holes from gravitational collapse suppresses the Poltergeist GW background to the level of generic scalar-induced signals and reopens ultra-light PBH parameter space.

A positive definite action for O(3)-symmetric vacuum decay that reduces to the standard tunneling potential method when O(4) symmetry is restored.
Semiclassical one-loop analysis of solvable near-critical collapse solutions shows quantum corrections selecting a Boulware-like state and producing a growing mode that yields a finite mass gap and a transition to Type I behavior, enforcing weak cosmic censorship.
In excursion set theory with colored noises, the low-mass tail of the PBH mass function differs from Carr's formula because correlated noises end the degeneracy of formation probabilities, though Carr's formula remains practical near the characteristic mass for smooth Fourier-space window functions.
Weak initial clustering of primordial black holes reduces the PBH fraction needed to explain LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA mergers in the two-body channel, while strong clustering suppresses the rate via three-body formation.
