Regular black holes without mass inflation instability
read the original abstract
Generic models of regular black holes have separate outer and inner horizons, both with nonzero surface gravity. It has been shown that a nonzero inner horizon surface gravity results in exponential instability at the inner horizon controlled by this parameter. This phenomenon takes the name of "mass inflation instability", and its presence has put in question the physical viability of regular black holes as alternatives to their (singular) general relativity counterparts. In this paper, we show that it is possible to make the inner horizon surface gravity vanish, while maintaining the separation between horizons, and a non-zero outer horizon surface gravity. We construct specific geometries satisfying these requirements, and analyze their behavior under different kinds of perturbations, showing that the exponential growth characteristic of mass inflation instability is not present for these geometries. These "inner-extremal" regular black holes are thereby better behaved than singular black holes and generic regular black holes, thus providing a well-motivated alternative of interest for fundamental and phenomenological studies.

Regular Black Holes in Nonlocal Quasitopological Gravity
Infinite-derivative completions of quasitopological gravities are ghost-free, avoid strong coupling, and admit exact spherically symmetric vacuum regular black holes obeying a perturbative Birkhoff theorem.

On mass inflation and thin shells in quasi-topological gravity
Regular black holes in quasi-topological gravity lack null thin shells in standard distributional theory, invalidating the usual mass inflation derivation and leaving inner horizon stability unresolved.

Regular black hole with sub-Planckian curvature and suppressed exponential mass inflation
A regular black hole metric is constructed with sub-Planckian curvature controlled by the inner horizon radius and power-law rather than exponential mass inflation near the inner horizon.

Eikonal, nonlocality and regular black holes
Nonlocal form factors in D-dimensional gravity yield effective geometries whose nonlinear completion gives regular, asymptotically flat Schwarzschild deformations with de Sitter cores.

Dark matter production from evaporation of regular primordial black holes
Regular primordial black holes can evaporate completely like singular ones and yield the observed dark matter density under modified cosmological constraints.
