Grothendieck’s point of view and complexity in the black hole paradox

Abstract

These are some speculations on how Grothendieck’s point of view and the idea of complexity dynamics can come together in the problem of explaining the black hole information paradox. They are neither complete, nor final, but can seem like a new direction of research. If read as such they could prove useful to some researchers. The basic idea is that entanglement alone cannot fully account for the information extraction in black hole contexts. Complexity has been proposed as an alternative but remains a vague concept. I employ Grothendieck’s point of view to expand the idea of entanglement entropy to a categorical context in which the objects (states) and their maps are considered together and the map space has additional topological and geometric structure that intermingles with the object set of the category via Sieves, Sheafs, and Toposes.
