Black holes as possible sources of closed and semiclosed worlds
Abstract
The internal structure of spacetime inside a black hole is investigated on the assumption that some limiting curvature exists. It is shown that the Schwarzschild metric inside the black hole can be attached to the de Sitter one at some spacelike junction surface which may represent a short transition layer. The method of massive thin shells by Israel is used to obtain the characteristics of this layer. It is shown that instead of the singularity the closed world can be formed inside the black hole. It is argued that this property of our model may also be valid in a more general case provided the gravitation theory is asymptotically free and the limiting curvature exists. After passing the deflation stage the closed world in the black-hole interior may begin to inflate and give rise to a new macroscopic universe. The described model may be considered as an example of the creation of a closed or semiclosed world "in the laboratory." The possible fate of the evaporating black hole is also briefly discussed.

Quantum particle production immediately after the bounce can generate a finite period of exponential inflation consistent with the Planck 2015 observations.
“Quantum particle production immediately after the bounce can generate a finite period of exponential inflation [5] that is consistent with the Planck 2015 observations of the cosmic microwave background radiation [24].”

If our universe was formed in a black hole, then it must have increased its entropy and isotropized in the past to match the currently observed FLRW universe.
“If our universe was formed in a black hole, then it must have increased its entropy [5,33,34] and isotropized in the past to match the currently observed FLRW universe [35].”

If β is too big, the right-hand side of (38) could become positive, causing temperature to grow with increasing a, leading to eternal inflation.
“When a increases and if β is too big, then the right-hand side of ( 38) could become positive.In this case, the temperature would grow with increasing a, which would lead to eternal inflation [5].”

Because of particle production, which increases entropy, each cycle of expansion and contraction lasts longer and reaches a larger maximum of Y than the preceding cycle.

The universe may have several bounces and cycles until it reaches the size at which the cosmological constant becomes dominant and prevents the next contraction; then the cycles end and the universe begins indefinite expansion.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
