In the present work, we construct black-bounce configurations in the context of $k$-essence theory. The solutions have a regular metric function at the origin. The area metric function is linked to the black-bounce area initially considered…

Classical general relativity predicts a singularity at the center of a black hole, where known laws of physics break down. This suggests the existence of deeper, yet unknown principles of Nature. Among various theoretical possibilities, one…

It is shown that an arbitrary static, spherically symmetric metric can be presented as an exact solution of a scalar-tensor theory (STT) of gravity with certain nonminimal coupling function $f(\phi)$ and potential $U(\phi)$. The scalar…

In this article, the implementation of black-bounce solutions in $f(R)$ theories is investigated. Black-bounce solutions are regular configurations of the static spherically symmetric space-time, containing both black holes and wormholes…

In recent years there have appeared in the literature a large number of static, spherically symmetric metrics, which are regular at the origin, asymptotically flat, and have both an event and a Cauchy horizon for certain range of the…

Recently, there has been an interest in exploring black holes that are regular in the sense that the central curvature singularity is avoided. Here, we depict a method to obtain a regular black hole (RBH) spacetime from the unhindered…

We investigate the existence of black bounce solutions in $2+1$ dimensions within the framework of $f(R)$ gravity. We analyze whether black bounce geometries originally obtained in general relativity can be consistently generalized to…

We consider a procedure of elimination of cosmological singularities similar to that suggested in the recent paper by Simpson and Visser for the construction of regular black holes. It is shown that by imposing a non-singular cosmological…

Key results from the literature pertaining to a class of nonsingular black hole mimickers are explored. The family of candidate spacetimes is for now labelled the `black-bounce' family, stemming from the original so-called `Simpson--Visser'…

The spacetime singularities in classical general relativity are inevitable, which are also predicated by the celebrated singularity theorems. However, it is general belief that singularities do not exist in the nature and they are the…

It is logically possible that regularly evaporating black holes exist in nature. In fact, the prevalent theoretical view is that these are indeed the real objects behind the curtain in astrophysical scenarios. There are several proposals…

Given the recent development of rotating black-bounce-Kerr spacetimes, for both theoretical and observational purposes it becomes interesting to see whether it might be possible to construct black-bounce variants of the entire Kerr-Newman…

We study new solutions of black bounce spacetimes formulated in $f(T)$ gravity in four dimensions. First, we present the case of a diagonal tetrad, where a constraint arises in the equations of motion, which is divided into the cases of…

The presence of spacetime singularities in physically relevant solutions of the Einstein Equations is normally interpreted as a symptom of the breakdown of classical general relativity at very high densities/curvatures. However, despite…
