In homogeneous cosmologies, quantum geometry effects lead to a resolution of the classical singularity without having to invoke special boundary conditions at the singularity or introduce ad-hoc elements such as unphysical matter. The same effects are shown to lead to a resolution of the Schwarzschild singularity. The resulting quantum extension of space-time is likely to have significant implications to the black hole evaporation process. Similarities and differences with the situation in quantum geometrodynamics are pointed out.

  1. Relational quantum dynamics of the black hole interior: singularity resolution and quantum bounce

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Relational quantization of the Schwarzschild black hole interior resolves the singularity with a quantum bounce, finite Kretschmann scalar, bounded area, and black-hole-to-white-hole transition.

  2. Canonical form of a deformed Poisson bracket spacetime

    gr-qc 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    A Hamiltonian is constructed that renders a deformed Poisson bracket spacetime theory canonical and covariant, enabling consistent coupling to scalar matter and dust.
