Resolving the Black Hole Information Paradox via Topological Evaporation Spectra

Puntos clave

This research explores the nature of black hole emissions and how they may carry information contrary to traditional thermal expectations.
Employed a QGEFT benchmark with parameters N=1024 and T=0.3.
Analyzed emissions from a black-hole surrogate over 80 sweeps, focusing on 24 discrete topological emissions.
Measured correlations and scores to evaluate the information content of the emitted spectra.
Emitted spectrum deviated significantly from a thermal baseline with L1 = 0.6242.
Successive emissions showed a high correlation of 0.7976 ± 0.1445.
The information-bearing score was determined to be 0.5872, indicating the potential for encoding black-hole microstate data.

Resumen

In the `N=1024`, `T=0.3` QGEFT benchmark, a black-hole surrogate initialized at target degree `160` evaporates through `24` discrete photon-like topological emissions over `80` sweeps. The emitted spectrum deviates strongly from a thermal baseline (`L1 = 0.6242`), while successive emissions remain highly correlated (`0.7976 ± 0.1445`) with a nonzero information-bearing score (`0.5872`). The present benchmark therefore supports a discrete-information interpretation of Hawking radiation: the outgoing channel is not exactly thermal and can encode black-hole microstate data as a topological barcode.
