A new approach to information loss (no) problem for Black Holes

TL;DR

This paper proposes a novel perspective on the black hole information loss problem, suggesting that some information is inherently preservable while other types can be destroyed during black hole formation and evaporation.

Contribution

It introduces a new conceptual framework that classifies information by importance, allowing for both preservation and destruction during black hole evolution.

Findings

Some information types are inherently preserved by nature.

Other information types can be destroyed without violating physical principles.

The approach offers a potential resolution to the black hole information paradox.

Abstract

The discovery that black holes emit thermal type radiation changed radically our perception of their behavior. Until then, their interior was considered as causally disconnected from the rest of the universe, so any kind of information, that went down the black hole, was believed to remain eternally trapped in it. The emission of the aforementioned radiation means that some amount of information eventually returns to the universe outside the black hole. The question then rises whether it is the whole of this information that goes back to the universe during the black hole evaporation or not. Numerous theories supporting either information preservation or extinction have been developed ever since. A new idea is proposed, based on a deep re-examination of what information is and what are its properties. We postulate that not all kinds of information are of equal importance to nature and, as a result, some of them should be preserved under any conditions, while the rest are allowed to be destroyed, so both preservation and destruction of information is what actually happens during the black hole formation/evaporation process.
