We investigate numerically spherically symmetric collapse of a scalar field in the semi-classical approximation. We first verify that our code reproduces the critical phenomena (the Choptuik effect) in the classical limit and black hole evaporation in the semi classical limit. We then investigate the effect of evaporation on the critical behavior. The introduction of the Planck length by the quantum theory suggests that the classical critical phenomena, which is based on a self similar structure, will disappear. Our results show that when quantum effects are not strong enough, critical behavior is observed. In the intermediate regime, evaporation is equivalent to a decrease of the initial amplitude. It doesn't change the echoing structure of near critical solutions. In the regime where black hole masses are low and the quantum effects are large, the semi classical approximation breaks down and has no physical meaning.

Semiclassical regularity of compact trapped regions: From dynamical horizons to inner extremality
In finite-lifetime dynamical geometries the in-vacuum RSET stays finite at the inner horizon, growing exponentially for non-extremal cases but only as a power law for inner-extremal ones.

Unveiling horizons in quantum critical collapse
Semiclassical quantum corrections in critical collapse yield a finite mass gap and transition from classical Type II to quantum Type I behavior, providing a quantum enforcement of weak cosmic censorship.

Quantum fate of the Choptuik naked singularity
Quantum backreaction generates horizons that cloak the Choptuik naked singularity, reducing its predictability violation to the standard black hole evaporation problem.

Quantum Critical Collapse Abhors a Naked Singularity
One-loop quantum vacuum polarization in Einstein-scalar critical collapse generates a horizon and finite mass gap, enforcing black hole formation even under arbitrary fine-tuning.

Dynamical evolution and stability of quantum corrected Schwarzschild black holes in semiclassical gravity
The static quantum corrected Schwarzschild wormhole is dynamically unstable: it expands in vacuum and collapses into an evaporating black hole when a small amount of matter is present.

Quantum corrected Einstein-Yang-Mills black holes in semiclassical gravity
Quantum vacuum backreaction in the Polyakov approximation removes the classical horizon from Einstein-Yang-Mills black holes, replacing it with a wormhole for large horizons and a compact horizonless object for small ones.

UV Effects and Short-Lived Hawking Radiation: Alternative Resolution of Information Paradox
Hawking radiation terminates around the scrambling time due to trans-Planckian stringy effects in GUP and string-field-theory-inspired toy models, yielding negligible evaporation and a mostly classical black hole.
