Geodesic incompleteness of some popular regular black holes
Abstract
Throughout the study of the geodesics of some popular spherically symmetric regular black holes, we hereby prove that the analytically extended Hayward black hole is geodetically incomplete. The simplest extension of the Culetu-Simpson-Visser's non-analytic smooth black hole is also geodetically incomplete, with the exception of the antipodal continuation of the radial geodesics. However, the huge ambiguity in the extension of non analytic spacetimes is tantamount of geodesic incompleteness and such spacetimes do not solve the singularity issue unless at least all the extensions turn out to be complete. Hence, we provide several mere modifications of such spacetimes in order to make them geodetically complete in all possible extensions beyond r=0.
