Quantum system ascribed to the Oppenheimer-Snyder model of massive star

Abstract

We quantize the Oppenheimer-Snyder model of black hole using the integral quantization method. We treat spatial and temporal coordinates on the same footing both at classical and quantum levels. Our quantization resolves or smears the singularities of the classical curvature invariants. Quantum trajectories with bounces can replace singular classical ones. The considered quantum black hole may have finite bouncing time. As a byproduct, we obtain the resolution of the gravitational singularity of the Schwarzschild black hole at quantum level.
