New 7-Dimensional Theory May Finally Solve the Black Hole Information Paradox

scitechdaily.com

A radical 7-dimensional spacetime "twist" theory may finally resolve the decades-old black hole information paradox — and rewrite what we think we know about quantum gravity.

New 7-Dimensional Theory May Finally Solve the Black Hole Information Paradox

Theory Briefing

  • The new theory adds spacetime torsion — a 'twisting' property absent in standard general relativity — across seven dimensions to track lost information.
  • Black holes have long seemed to destroy information, violating quantum mechanics' core rule that information is always conserved.
  • By allowing spacetime to twist, the model offers a geometric escape route for information, potentially reconciling general relativity with quantum theory.
