Quantum Improved Black Holes in Asymptotically Safe Gravity

In this talk, I will explore quantum-improved black hole solutions within the framework of asymptotic safety. In this approach, the Newton coupling becomes scale-dependent, necessitating a meaningful identification between the energy scale and a corresponding physical (length) scale to derive observable consequences for black hole spacetimes. I will argue that the requirement of consistency with the first law of black hole thermodynamics provides a physically motivated criterion for this scale-setting, particularly near the event horizon. Applying this principle, we propose a specific identification scheme that leads to a regularized geometry capable of resolving the ring singularity of Kerr black holes.
