Description

I will discuss a class of time-dependent, asymptotically flat and spherically symmetric metrics which model gravitational collapse in quantum gravity developed by myself and the other listed authors. Motivating the work was the intuition that quantum gravity should not exhibit curvature singularities and indeed, the metrics lead to singularity resolution with horizon formation and evaporation following a matter bounce. A noteworthy result of this metric is that we can recover the Hawking evaporation time M^3 for the lifetime of the black hole.
