The spacetime singularities in classical general relativity are inevitable, which are also predicated by the celebrated singularity theorems. However, it is general belief that singularities do not exist in the nature and they are the limitations of the general relativity. In the absence of a well defined quantum gravity, models of regular black holes have been studied. We employ probability distribution inspired mass function $m(r)$ to replace Kerr black hole mass $M$ to present a nonsingular rotating black hole that is identified asymptotically ($r \gg k$, $k>0$ constant) exactly as the Kerr-Newman black hole, and as the Kerr black hole when $k=0$. The radiating counterpart renders a nonsingular generalization of Carmeli's spacetime as well as Vaidya's spacetime, in the appropriate limits. The exponential correction factor changing the geometry of the classic black hole to remove curvature singularity can be also motivated by the quantum arguments. The regular rotating spacetime can also be understood as a black hole of general relativity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics.

  1. Probing Kalb-Ramond gravity with charged rotating black holes: constraints from EHT observations

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    EHT shadow observations constrain the Lorentz-violating parameter ℓ in Kalb-Ramond gravity for charged rotating black holes to roughly |ℓ| ≲ 0.1-0.2, with an upper bound ℓ ≲ 0.19 from Sgr A*.

  2. Testing black hole metrics with binary black hole inspirals

    gr-qc 2025-10 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    Constraints on deviations from Kerr black hole metrics are derived from binary black hole inspiral waveforms modeled with effective one-body methods and analyzed via the parameterized post-Einsteinian framework.
