Unitarity and Page curve for evaporation of 2D AdS black holes
arXiv:2106.14738 · doi:10.3390/e24010101
Abstract
We explore the Hawking evaporation of two-dimensional anti-de Sitter (AdS), dilatonic black hole coupled with conformal matter, and derive the Page curve for the entanglement entropy of radiation. We first work in a semiclassical approximation with backreaction. We show that the end-point of the evaporation process is AdS with a vanishing dilaton, i.e. a regular, singularity-free, zero-entropy state. We explicitly compute the entanglement entropies of the black hole and the radiation, as functions of the horizon radius, using the conformal field theory (CFT) dual to AdS gravity. We use a simplified toy model, in which evaporation is described by the forming and growing of a negative mass configuration in the positive-mass black hole interior. This is similar to the ``islands'' proposal, recently put forward to explain the Page curve for evaporating black holes. The resulting Page curve for AdS black holes is in agreement with unitary evolution. The entanglement entropy of the radiation initially grows, closely following a thermal behavior, reaches a maximum at half-way of the evaporation process, and then goes down to zero, following the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of the black hole. Consistency of our simplified model requires a non-trivial identification of the central charge of the CFT describing AdS gravity with the number of species of fields describing Hawking radiation.
