The Black Hole Final State
نویسنده
چکیده
We propose that in quantum gravity one needs to impose a final state boundary condition at black hole singularities. This resolves the apparent contradiction between string theory and semiclassical arguments over whether black hole evaporation is unitary.

Unitarity of black hole evaporation in final-state projection models
Almheiri et al. have emphasized that otherwise reasonable beliefs about black hole evaporation are incompatible with the monogamy of quantum entanglement, a general property of quantum mechanics. We investigate the final-state projection model of black hole evaporation proposed by Horowitz and Maldacena, pointing out that this model admits cloning of quantum states and polygamous entanglement, ...
متن کاملFinal State of Hawking Radiation in Quantum General Relativity †
We use a new approach to the UV behavior of quantum general relativity, together with some recent results from the phenomenological asymptotic safety analysis of the theory, to discuss the final state of the Hawking radiation for an originally very massive black hole solution of Einstein's theory. We find that, after the black hole evaporates to the Planck mass size, its horizon is obviated by ...

متن کاملBlack Hole thermodynamics without a black hole?
In the present paper we consider, using our earlier results, the process of quantum gravitational collapse and argue that there exists the final quantum state when the collapse stops. This state, which can be called the “no-memory state”, reminds the final “no-hair state” of the classical gravitational collapse. Translating the “no-memory state” into classical language we construct the classica...
متن کاملCanonical quantum gravity and black-hole evaporation
Present approaches to quantum gravity remain so far inconclusive about the final stage of black-hole evaporation. The intention of this paper is to get a qualitative insight into how this stage may look like. For this purpose we address a simple model of two harmonic oscillators in the formalism of quantum geometrodynamics. One oscillator mimics the black hole state and is therefore attributed ...
