Abstract: This article presents a new model-independent constraint for bouncing black hole geometries. Using the thin shell formalism, this constraint sets a bound on the minimal allowed radius of the time-like surface of the collapsing star at the bounce. It follows from this bound that the shell always bounces in an untrapped region or precisely on a trapping horizon. This constraint is of purely kinematical origin as it descends from the continuity of the metric between the geometries describing the interior and exterior of the collapsing object so that it is completely model-independent. The second part of this work investigates the conditions under which an effective extension of the Oppenheimer-Snyder collapse can describe consistent bouncing black hole solutions. We show that on top of the previous kinematical constraint, an additional dynamical condition has to be satisfied in order for the model to admit well-defined black-to-white hole solutions. As expected, this second condition turns out to be model-dependent. The resulting class of models describing bouncing compact objects are characterized by three parameters for the star (mass, initial radius and density) and two quantum parameters descending from the UV-completion of the exterior and interior geometries. The solution space contains (1) bouncing stars and (2) bouncing black holes and (3) a new class of astrophysical objects which alternate between a bouncing star and a bouncing black hole. Finally, we provide an explicit construction of a black-to-white hole bounce using the techniques of spatially closed LQC and discuss the novel properties induced by the presence of the inner horizon in this new framework. This generic framework lays down the foundation for interesting phenomenological investigations concerning the astrophysical properties of these objects, as well as a novel platform for further developments.
