abstract

We study the quantum dynamics of the Lema\^itre-Tolman-Bondi space-times using a polymer quantization prescription based on loop quantum cosmology that incorporates fundamental discreteness. By solving an effective equation derived from this quantization, we find analytical solutions for the Oppenheimer-Snyder and thin-shell collapse models, and numerical solutions for a variety of asymptotically flat collapsing dust profiles. Our study (i) tracks the formation, evolution and disappearance of dynamical horizons, (ii) shows that matter undergoes a non-singular bounce that results in an outgoing shock wave, (iii) determines black hole lifetime to be proportional to the square its mass, and (iv) provides a conformal diagram that substantially modifies the standard "information loss" picture by resolving the singularity and replacing the event horizon by transient apparent horizons.

Quantum gravitational stellar evolution beyond shell-crossing singularities

gr-qc · 2026-01-26 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

A Hamiltonian formulation of Darmois-Israel junction conditions extends LQG-inspired stellar collapse models beyond shell-crossing singularities by treating them as timelike thin dust shells, yielding an inter-universal wormhole with continuous induced metric.

Fuzzy-novae

gr-qc · 2026-05-08 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0 · 2 refs

A loop-quantum-gravity-inspired phenomenological model of stellar collapse resolves central and shell-crossing singularities via local quantum repulsion, resulting in a stable outgoing solitary matter wave that ejects the entire stellar mass as a fuzzy-nova.
