From Quantum to Cosmos: The Hawking Information Paradox Solved (3+1D, No Islands, Only ${\hbar,c,G,k_B}$)
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This deposit contains the minimal, covariant framework that resolves the Hawking Information Paradox without invoking islands, exotic sectors, or modifications of Einstein’s equation.The approach is based on Planck-covariant smearing of the renormalized stress-energy tensor over the invariant two-measure σP = ℓP · tP = ħ G / c⁴. The result is a smooth, unitary Page curve in 3+1D Kerr spacetimes, with non-thermality quantified by a single small parameter ε = max{ τ κ / c , L / r₊ } ≪ 1. Key features: No new constants: only {ħ, c, G, kB}. Explicitly falsifiable: non-thermality coefficient c₀ tied to greybody slopes and kernel moments, with clear experimental or analogue targets. General: applies to Schwarzschild and Kerr horizons in 3+1D. Semiclassical: Einstein’s left-hand side preserved, quantum corrections only via renormalized expectation values.
