Black hole singularity is a surface not a point

A new theoretical physics paper suggests that the singularity at the center of a rotating black hole may be better described as a two-dimensional surface rather than an infinitesimal point, potentially resolving key paradoxes in black hole physics.

Background

The nature of black hole singularities has been a longstanding puzzle in theoretical physics, sitting at the intersection of general relativity and quantum mechanics.
