The Information Paradox for Black Holes
S. W. Hawking
I propose that the information loss paradox can be resolved by considering the supertranslation of the horizon caused by the ingoing particles. Information can be recovered in prin…
Information Preservation and Weather Forecasting for Black Holes
S. W. Hawking
It has been suggested [1] that the resolution of the information paradox for evaporating black holes is that the holes are surrounded by firewalls, bolts of outgoing radiation that…
Vector Fields in Holographic Cosmology
James B. Hartle, S. W. Hawking, Thomas Hertog
We extend the holographic formulation of the semiclassical no-boundary wave function (NBWF) to models with Maxwell vector fields. It is shown that the familiar saddle points of the…
Quantum Probabilities for Inflation from Holography
James B. Hartle, S. W. Hawking, Thomas Hertog
The evolution of the universe is determined by its quantum state. The wave function of the universe obeys the constraints of general relativity and in particular the Wheeler-DeWitt…
Accelerated Expansion from Negative Λ
James B. Hartle, S. W. Hawking, Thomas Hertog
Wave functions specifying a quantum state of the universe must satisfy the constraints of general relativity, in particular the Wheeler-DeWitt equation (WDWE). We show for a wide c…
Local Observation in Eternal inflation
James Hartle, S. W. Hawking, Thomas Hertog
We consider landscape models that admit several regions where the conditions for eternal inflation hold. It is shown that one can use the no-boundary wave function to calculate sma…
