The Black Hole Paradoxes and Possible Solutions

Abstract

Quantum mechanics and general relativity have some irreconcilable contradictions, causing the black hole information and firewall paradoxes. This paper investigates the cause of these two paradoxes and provides some possible solutions. The information paradox wants to explore if the information falling into the black hole really gets lost. The article briefly introduces the principle of Maldacena’s Duality, the black hole complementarity principle and other models to solve it. The firewall paradox tries to find if things passing the black hole horizon would be destroyed by a firewall. The introduction of computational complexity and the model of ER=EPR may resolve this paradox. Moreover, if the firewall really exists, the rebound of the gravitational wave when hitting the firewall may help detect it. In general, the solutions of the black hole paradoxes may provide us with a possible way of unifying quantum mechanics and general relativity.
