Static Black Holes and Iyer-Wald Entropy in $f(\mathcal{R},\mathcal{K})$ Gravity

We investigate static, spherically symmetric black hole solutions in a class of higher-curvature gravitational theories described by a Lagrangian that depends on the Ricci and Kretschmann scalars. The modified Einstein equations contain higher-order curvature terms. We develop a perturbative scheme to look for a black hole solution that deviates parametrically from the Schwarzschild geometry. We obtain first-order corrections to the metric by solving the resulting coupled differential equations. The corresponding Iyer--Wald entropy is then evaluated consistently to first order in the perturbative coupling. We show that the higher-curvature contribution gives rise to a power-law correction to the Bekenstein--Hawking entropy.

Effective Improved-GUP Cosmology: Emergent FLRW Universe without a Bounce

We investigate the effective dynamics of a spatially flat FLRW universe coupled to a massless scalar field by applying the improved generalized uncertainty principle (GUP)-inspired deformations to the algebra of Ashtekar-Barbero variables. We consider deformations, once only in the geometry sector, and once in both the geometry and matter sectors. We show that in both cases, the classical singularity is replaced with a non-singular, emergent universe coasting from a constant-volume state in the infinite relational past time without a bounce. As expected, a constant geometric GUP parameter leads to fiducial anomalies, but we resolve it by employing an improved scheme in which this parameter is inversely proportional to the gravitational momentum. This leads to a universal, invariant maximum energy density while preserving the emergent nature of the universe. A Lyapunov stability analysis reveals that the improved scheme drives the universe toward classicality faster than the constant scheme.

Semiclassical resolution of the black hole singularity inspired in the minimal uncertainty approach

We propose a new lapse function that simplifies the Hamiltonian constraint, describing the interior of the black hole in terms of the Ashtekar-Barbero variables, into a more straightforward form. The new Hamiltonian leads to different equations of motion than those found in the literature, but through a suitable transformation between temporal parameters, it is found that such a choice leads us to the classical solutions of the Schwarzschild metric, still preserving the physical singularity. In order to resolve this singularity, and inspired by the minimal uncertainty approach, we modify the classical algebra between the dynamic variables of the model, imposing an effective dynamics within the black hole. As a consequence, one of the dynamic variables, denoted by $p_b$, acquires a minimum value at the singularity $t=0$, and on the other hand, the variable related to the radius of the 2-sphere, $p_c$, leads to the resolution of the classical singularity of the black hole by replacing it with a bounce that connects the interior of the black hole with the interior of the white hole. This bounce occurs in the Planck-scale region, where a new event horizon manifests. Upon crossing this horizon, the nature of the interval changes from spatial to temporal outside the white hole.

Black hole interior quantization: a minimal uncertainty approach

In a previous work we studied the interior of the Schwarzschild black hole implementing an effective minimal length, by applying a modification to the Poisson brackets of the theory. In this work we perform a proper quantization of such a system. Specifically, we quantize the interior of the Schwarzschild black hole in two ways: once by using the standard quantum theory, and once by following a minimal uncertainty approach. Then, we compare the obtained results from the two approaches. We show that, as expected, the wave function in the standard approach diverges in the region where classical singularity is located and the expectation value of the Kretschmann scalar also blows up on this state in that region. On the other hand, by following a minimal uncertainty quantization approach, we obtain 5 new and important results as follows. 1) All the interior states remain well-defined and square-integrable. 2) The expectation value of the Kretschmann scalar on the states remains finite over the whole interior region, particularly where used to be the classical singularity, therefore signaling the resolution of the black hole singularity. 3) A new quantum number is found which plays a crucial role in determining the convergence of the norm of states, as well as the convergence and finiteness of the expectation value of the Kretschmann scalar. 4) A minimum for the radius of the (2-spheres in the) black holes is found 5) By demanding square-integrability of states in the whole interior region, an exact relation between the Barbero-Immirzi parameter and the minimal uncertainty scale is found.

Modified entropies as the origin of generalized uncertainty principles

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle is known to be connected to the entropic uncertainty principle. This correspondence is obtained employing a Gaussian probability distribution for wave functions associated to the Shannon entropy. Independently, due to quantum gravity effects the Heisenberg uncertainty principle has been extended to a Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP). In this work, we show that GUP has been derived from considering non-extensive entropies, proposed by one of us. We found that the deformation parameters associated with $S_{+}$ and $S_-$ entropies are negative and positive respectively. This allows us to explore various possibilities in the search of physical implications. We conclude that non-extensive statistics constitutes a signature of quantum gravity.

Deformed algebra and the effective dynamics of the interior of black holes

We consider the classical Hamiltonian of the interior of the Schwarzschild black hole in Ashtekar-Barbero connection formalism. Then, inspired by generalized uncertainty principle models, we deform the classical canonical algebra and derive the effective dynamics of the model under this modification. We show that such a deformation leads to the resolution of the singularity of the black hole and a minimum nonzero radius for the infalling 2-spheres, provided that the deformation parameters are chosen to be negative.
