A nonsingular two dimensional black hole

Abstract We construct a model of gravity in 1 + 1 spacetime dimensions in which the solutions approach the Schwarzschild metric at large r and de Sitter space far inside the horizon. Our model may be viewed as a two dimensional application of the “Limiting Curvature Construction” of Mukhanov and Brandenberger [Phys. Rev. Lett. 68 (1992) 1969].
