The crushing point at the center of a black hole might actually be a gateway that spits everything back out as a white hole.

Traditional physics says that everything falling into a black hole ends up destroyed at a single point of infinite density. This new model suggests that quantum effects resolve this point and cause a massive bounce. Instead of an ending, the center becomes a transition into a white hole that ejects the matter back into space. This provides a mathematical solution to the paradox of lost information in black holes. It suggests that our universe might be part of a cycle where black holes act as cosmic recycling centers.

Relational quantum dynamics of the black hole interior: singularity resolution and quantum bounce

We study the interior of the Schwarzschild black hole which is isometric to the Kantowski-Sachs cosmological model, using a fully relational and gauge-invariant quantization framework. The physical Hilbert space is constructed via refined algebraic quantization, and quantum dynamics is recovered through the Page-Wootters formalism with a covariant POVM clock built from one of the two configuration variables, whose Hamiltonian is proportional to the momentum of the said variable.
