General class of "quantum deformed" regular black holes
Abstract
We discuss the "quantum deformed Schwarzschild spacetime" as originally introduced by Kazakov and Solodukhin in 1993, and investigate the precise sense in which it does and does not satisfy the desiderata for being a "regular black hole". We shall carefully distinguish (i) regularity of the metric components, (ii) regularity of the Christoffel components, and (iii) regularity of the curvature. We shall then embed the Kazakov-Solodukhin spacetime in a more general framework where these notions are clearly and cleanly separated. Finally we analyze aspects of the classical physics of these "quantum deformed Schwarzschild spacetimes". We shall discuss the surface gravity, the classical energy conditions, null and timelike geodesics, and the appropriate variant of Regge--Wheeler equation.
