Black Hole Information as Topological Qubits

Understand

The principle of balanced holography, introduced in [1], posits that black hole information is stored in non-local correlations between the interior and exterior.

• Based on this concept, we propose that black hole information decomposes into elementary units in the form of topological qubits, and is protected from local sources of decoherence.
• The topological protection mechanism ensures that the horizon of an evaporating black hole stays young and smooth.
