Quantum black holes may not have interiors — •Vijay Balasubramanian — University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA 19004, USA

Recent advances at the interface of quantum gravity, quantum computation, and quantum information theory suggest that sufficiently complex external observers can use quantum entanglement to probe the putative interior of black holes. The causal separation of the classical black hole into an interior and exterior separated by a horizon may then be an artifact of the classical limit.

Keywords: black holes; information paradox; quantum entanglement; complexity; black hole thermodynamics
