We construct a (quantum mechanically) modified model for the Oppenheimer-Snyder collapse scenario where the exterior of the collapsing dust ball is a Hayward black hole spacetime and the interior is a dust Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmology. This interior cosmology is entirely determined by the junction conditions with the exterior black hole. It turns out to be non-singular, displaying a power-law contraction which precedes a de Sitter phase or, reversely, a power-law expansion followed by a de Sitter era. We demonstrate that cosmic inflation in the collapse setting is a mechanism that decelerates collapsing matter, thereby preventing singularity formation. We also analyse the global causal structure and the viability of the model.

  1. Obstructions to Minimal Regular Black Hole Cosmologies

    gr-qc 2026-06 conditional novelty 7.0

    Obstructions from matching conditions and completeness theorems prevent minimal regular black hole models from hosting unbounded FRW daughter cosmologies.

  2. Obstructions to Minimal Regular Black Hole Cosmologies

    gr-qc 2026-06 conditional novelty 5.0

    A minimal FRW 'daughter universe' matched without a shell to an asymptotically flat regular black hole is either bounded (closed) or geodesically incomplete (flat/open), so a regular core alone cannot supply a viable ...

  3. Obstructions to Minimal Regular Black Hole Cosmologies

    gr-qc 2026-06 conditional novelty 5.0

    No-shell FRW daughters matched to asymptotically flat regular black holes are bounded if closed and past-incomplete if flat or open; a regular core alone cannot yield a viable daughter cosmology.
