Black bounces and remnants in dilaton gravity

Abstract

We propose a family of dilaton gravity models possessing bouncing solutions with interiors connecting separate asymptotically flat regions. We demonstrate that inner Cauchy horizons are stable given certain initial conditions. We study causal structure and evaluate thermodynamic properties of black bounces using Euclidean methods. Extremal bounces have zero temperature and can be considered as remnants. We speculate that quantum fluctuations can dissolve event horizons in case of black bounces providing a possible resolution to the information paradox.
