• Abstract: Suppose a black hole forms from a pure quantum state $\ket{\psi}$. The black hole information loss paradox arises from semiclassical arguments suggesting that, even in a closed system, the process of black hole formation and evaporation evolves a pure state into a mixed state. Resolution to the paradox typically demands violation of quantum mechanics or relativity in domains where they should hold. Instead, I propose that in a complete theory of quantum gravity, any region $\mathcal{U}$ that could collapse into a black hole should already be described by a mixed state, thus bypassing the paradox entirely. To that end, I present a model in which the universe is in a quantum error-corrected state, such that any local black hole appears mixed and encodes no information locally.

  Embezzlement of entanglement refers to the counterintuitive possibility of extracting entangled quantum states from a reference state of an auxiliary system. We uncover a deep connection between the operational task of embezzling entanglement and the mathematical classification of von Neumann algebras.

• Page Time as a Transition of Information Channels: High-fidelity Information Retrieval for Radiating Black Holes [11.13371546439765]
  In this Letter, we demonstrate that this view can be relaxed in a new postselection model. We investigate information recoverability in a radiating black hole through the non-unitary dynamics that projects the randomly-selected modes from a scrambling unitary. We show that the model has the merit of producing the von Neumann entropy of black holes consistent with the island formula calculation. In this model the Page time gains a new interpretation as the transition point between two channels of information transmission when sufficient amounts of effective modes are annihilated inside the horizon.

• Stimulated Emission of Radiation and the Black Hole Information Problem [0.0]
  Black holes not only emit radiation spontaneously, but also respond to infalling matter and radiation by emitting approximate clones of those fields in a stimulated manner. I show how stimulated emission turns the black hole into an almost optimal quantum cloning machine. I speculate about possible observable consequences of stimulated emission of radiation in black holes.

The quantum walks of quasi-particle in the curved spacetime reflect the gravitational effect near the black hole, resulting in the behaviour of stimulated Hawking radiation.

• What can we learn about islands and state paradox from quantum information theory? [10.24376036299883]
  We show that the Page curve can still be realized even if information is lost and the information paradox can be attributed to the measurement problem. Though speculative, the similarities between the black hole information problem and the measurement problem may suggest some link in the origins of the two fundamental issues of distant fields.
