We study the spherically symmetric collapse of a real, minimally coupled, massive scalar field in an asymptotically Einstein-de Sitter spacetime background. By means of an eikonal approximation for the field and metric functions, we obtain a simple analytical criterion---involving the physical size and mass scales (the field's inverse Compton wavelength and the spacetime gravitational mass) of the initial matter configuration---for generic (non-time-symmetric) initial data to collapse to a black hole. This analytical condition can then be used to place constraints on the initial primordial black hole spectrum, by considering spherical density perturbations that re-entered the horizon during an early matter-dominated phase that immediately followed inflation.

Primordial black holes through preheating instabilities in $\alpha$-attractor models
In alpha-attractor models, preheating self-resonance can form primordial black holes of 10^2 to 10^7 g, with the Khlopov-Polnarev collapse formalism staying viable and the Press-Schechter formalism overproducing.
