Information Storage in a Black Hole’s Gravitational Field

The key to resolving the black hole information loss paradox lies in clarifying the origin of black hole entropy and the mechanism by which black holes store information. By applying thermodynamic principles, we demonstrate that the entropy of a gravitational field is negative and proportional to the strength of the field, indicating that gravitational fields possess information storage capacity. For Schwarzschild black holes, we further demonstrate that information conventionally attributed to the black hole’s interior is in fact encoded within its external gravitational field. During black hole evaporation, the emitted particles transmit this information via gravitational correlations. This study advances our understanding of gravitational field entropy and provides valuable insights toward resolving the black hole information loss problem.
