Observer complementarity for black holes and holography
Netta Engelhardt, Elliott Gesteau, Daniel Harlow

TL;DR
This paper develops a mathematical framework for black hole complementarity using observer-inclusive quantum cosmology, offering a consistent description of black hole interiors and entangled universe configurations.
Contribution
It introduces a novel mathematical formulation of black hole complementarity incorporating the observer, applicable to evaporating black holes and entangled universe scenarios.
Findings
Provides a self-consistent model of black hole interiors.
Extends complementarity to entangled universe configurations.
Offers a new approach to quantum cosmology with observer inclusion.
Abstract
We present a mathematical formulation of black hole complementarity based on recent rules for including the observer in quantum cosmology. We argue that this provides a self-consistent treatment of the interior of an evaporating black hole throughout its history, as well as the Antonini-Sasieta-Swingle-Rath configuration where a closed universe is entangled with a pair of AdS universes.
