The Information Paradox for Black Holes
S. W. Hawking
TL;DR
This paper suggests that black hole information loss can be theoretically resolved through horizon supertranslations caused by ingoing particles, implying information is recoverable in principle but practically lost.
Contribution
It introduces a novel approach linking horizon supertranslations to resolving the black hole information paradox.
Findings
Information can be recovered in principle.
Supertranslations modify the horizon structure.
Practical information loss remains unavoidable.
Abstract
I propose that the information loss paradox can be resolved by considering the supertranslation of the horizon caused by the ingoing particles. Information can be recovered in principle, but it is lost for all practical purposes.
