Singularity-Free Collapse through Local Inflation

Year: 2005
Type: preprint
Abstract: In common relativistic models of gravitational collapse, the interior experiences a bubble-like local inflation, allowing radii to diverge rather than converge toward a singularity. This proves a conjecture of Shatskiy. At the horizon, the solution locally resembles the neck of a wormhole from the exterior to the interior. The implied limiting curvature is at the horizon not the Planck level.
