Alternative theory for the quantum black hole and the temperature of its quantum radiation
Gerard t Hooft
A mechanism is found that explains how matter falling into the future event horizon of a black hole leaves information there, which it sends to the past event horizon, and there it…
The Hidden Ontological Variable in Quantum Harmonic Oscillators
Gerard t Hooft
The standard quantum mechanical harmonic oscillator has an exact, dual relationship with a completely classical system: a classical particle running along a circle. Duality here me…
Quantum Foundations as a Guide for Refining Particle Theories
Gerard t Hooft
All quantum field theories that describe interacting bosonic elementary particles, share the feature that the zeroth order perturbation expansion describes non-interacting harmonic…
How an exact discrete symmetry can preserve black hole information or Turning a black hole inside out
Gerard t Hooft
To apply the laws of General Relativity to quantum black holes, one first needs to remove the horizon singularity by means of Kruskal-Szekeres coordinates. This however doubles spa…
Quantum clones inside black holes
Gerard t Hooft
A systematic procedure is proposed for better understanding the evolution laws of black holes in terms of pure quantum states. We start with the two opposed regions I and II in the…
The Black Hole Firewall Transformation and Realism in Quantum Mechanics
Gerard t Hooft
A procedure to derive a unitary evolution law for a quantised black hole, has been proposed by the author. The proposal requires that one starts off with the entire Penrose diagram…
