Black holes radiate but do not evaporate

TL;DR

This paper argues that black holes radiate energy but do not evaporate, as their interior retains all initial matter and negative energy quanta, implying information preservation despite semiclassical predictions of zero mass.

Contribution

It challenges the traditional view of black hole evaporation by showing that the interior contains all matter and negative energy quanta, preventing complete evaporation and information loss.

Findings

Black holes contain all initial matter during radiation.

Negative energy quanta remain entangled inside.

Black hole mass drops to zero but retains information.

Abstract

During the black hole radiation, the interior contains all the matter of the initial black hole, together with the negative energy quanta entangled with the exterior Hawking radiation. Neither the initial matter nor the negative energy quanta evaporate from the black hole interior. Therefore, the information is not lost during the radiation. The black hole mass eventually drops to zero in semiclassical gravity, but this semiclassical state has an infinite temperature and still contains all the initial matter together with the negative energy entangled with the exterior radiation.
