This theoretical framework predicts a critical mass limit for black holes, suggesting mechanism to avoid singularity.
The prevailing view of black holes in classical general relativity permits unbounded growth, culminating in a singular, physics-breaking endpoint. While quantum gravity approaches aim to resolve the singularity, the question of a fundamental upper mass limit remains open. This paper presents a novel theoretical framework based on a Unified Fractal Quantum Field Theory (UFQFT) that predicts a natural saturation point for black hole mass. By reinterpreting the black hole interior not as a singularity but as afractal corewhere the wavefunctions of constituent quarks and particles merge into a single, cohesive structure, we derive aneffective repulsive Ψ-charge. We demonstrate that the gravitational pressure ( P G ) and this repulsive pressure ( P Ψ ) achieve equilibrium at a critical charge-to-mass ratio α *= 4π ϵ 0 G ≈8.62×10 −11 C/kg. This balance implies acritical mass ( M crit)for any black hole, beyond which growth is halted by a prospective bounce or mass-shedding phase transition. We parameterize the mass dependence of the effective repulsion,α(M), and show how M critcan be tuned to align with astrophysical observations, from stellar-mass to supermassive black holes. Our model not only offers a mechanism to evade the singularity but also provides testable predictions for the black hole mass spectrum and the extreme activity of quasars, potentially explaining why black holes cannot grow indefinitely.
