Black holes are one of the most fascinating predictions of general relativity. They are the natural product of the complete gravitational collapse of matter and today we have a body of observational evidence supporting the existence of black holes in the Universe. However, general relativity predicts that at the center of black holes there are spacetime singularities, where predictability is lost and standard physics breaks down. It is widely believed that spacetime singularities are a symptom of the limitations of general relativity and must be solved within a theory of quantum gravity. Since we do not have yet any mature and reliable candidate for a quantum gravity theory, researchers have studied toy-models of singularity-free black holes and of singularity-free gravitational collapses in order to explore possible implications of the yet unknown theory of quantum gravity. This book reviews all main models of regular black holes and non-singular gravitational collapses proposed in the literature, and discuss the theoretical and observational implications of these scenarios.

  1. Spectral Bifurcations in Quasinormal Modes of Regular BTZ Black Holes

    gr-qc 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For regular BTZ black holes from an infinite Lovelock tower, scalar quasinormal modes bifurcate from complex BTZ branches into purely imaginary branches as the regularization length ℓ grows, producing mode switching a...

  2. Tidal Love numbers for regular black holes

    gr-qc 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

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

  3. Regular black hole with sub-Planckian curvature and suppressed exponential mass inflation

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    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.

  4. Doubly regular black holes

    gr-qc 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Most proposed curvature-regular black hole metrics still contain thermodynamic Davies points, and only specially constructed families are both curvature-regular and thermodynamically regular.

    gr-qc 2023-08 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    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 ...

    Within two QCD-inspired equations of state coupled to Eddington-Finkelstein collapse, finite chemical potential reshapes thermodynamics but does not produce self-regularizing black hole cores.

    gr-qc 2025-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    Axial quasinormal modes of regular black holes in asymptotically safe gravity are weakly affected by the deviation parameter for the fundamental mode but show notable deviations for higher overtones, with strong agree...
