Information loss problem and roles of instantons

Abstract

In order to understand the information loss problem, non-perturbative effects will do significant roles. Instantons are in general helpful for this purpose. There are various and rich thin-shell instantons and tunneling channels that eventually result a trivial geometry without a singularity nor an event horizon. We further discuss that there are some subtle examples in asymptotic de Sitter cases that need further investigations.
