Reply to "Comment" on "Regular evaporating black holes with stable cores"

We reply to the ``Comment'' on ``Regular evaporating black holes with stable cores'' by R. Carballo-Rubio, F. Di Filippo, S. Liberati, C. Pacilio, and M. Visser. As a key result, we show that the regime of mass-inflation identified in the comment connects smoothly to the late-time attractors discovered in our works [A. Bonanno et. al., Regular black holes with stable cores, Phys. Rev. D 103, 124027 (2021) and Regular evaporating black holes with stable cores, Phys. Rev. D 107, 024005 (2023)]. Hence, the late-time stability of regular black holes is not affected by this intermediate phase.

Regular black holes with stable cores

Non-singular black hole geometries typically come with two spacetime horizons: an (outer) event horizon and an (inner) Cauchy horizon. This nurtures the speculation that they may be subject to a mass-inflation effect which renders the Cauchy horizon unstable. We analyze the dynamics associated with spherically symmetric, regular black holes taking the full backreaction between the infalling matter and geometry into account. On this basis, we identify the crucial features taming the growth of the mass function and diminishing the curvature singularity at the Cauchy horizon. It is demonstrated explicitly that the regular black hole solutions proposed by Hayward and obtained from Asymptotic Safety satisfy these properties.

Regular evaporating black holes with stable cores

A feature shared by many regular black hole spacetimes is the occurrence of a Cauchy horizon. It is then commonly believed that this renders the geometry unstable against perturbations through the mass-inflation effect. In this work, we perform the first dynamical study of this effect taking into account the mass-loss of the black hole due to Hawking radiation. It is shown that the time-dependence of the background leads to two novel types of late-time behavior whose properties are entirely determined by the Hawking flux. The first class of attractor-behavior is operative for regular black holes of the Hayward and renormalization group improved type and characterized by the square of the Weyl curvature growing as $v^6$ at asymptotically late times. This singularity is inaccessible to a radially free-falling observer though. The second class is realized by Reissner-Nordstr{ö}m black holes and regular black holes of the Bardeen type. In this case the curvature scalars remain finite as $v\rightarrow\infty$. Thus the Hawking flux has a profound effect on the mass-inflation instability, either weakening the effect significantly or even expelling it entirely.

A Information-Theoretic View on Spacetime

We argue in a quantitative way that the unitarity principle of quantum field theory together with the quantum information bound on correlation functions are in tension with a space which is made out of disconnected patches at microscopic scales.
