Toy models of black hole, white hole and wormhole: thermal effects and information loss problem


Abstract in English

In this paper, by setting proper boundaries in the Minkowski spacetime, we construct three toy model spacetimes, a toy black hole, a toy white hole, and a toy wormhole. Based on these model spacetimes, we discuss the Hawking radiation and the information loss problem. By counting the number of the field modes inside and outside the horizon, we show the thermal radiation of the toy black hole. We show that the white hole have a thermal absorption. We show that in the whole toy wormhole spacetime, there is no information lost. In addition, we show the black hole radiation and the white hole absorption are independent of the choices of boundary conditions at the singularity. We also show the physical effects caused by two particular boundary conditions.
