Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Classically, the area of the event horizon can never decrease, and when two black holes collide and merge, the area of the final event horizon is greater than the sum of the areas of the two original horizons.

    “There is an obvious analogy with the second law of thermodynamics in the law that, classically, the area of the event horizon can never decrease and that when two black holes collide and merge together, the area of the final event horizon is greater than the sum of the areas of the two original horizons [7, 12].”

  • As the mass of the black hole decreases, the area of the event horizon would have to go down, violating the classical law that area cannot decrease.

    “As the mass of the black hole decreased, the area of the event horizon would have to go down, thus violating the law that, classically, the area cannot decrease [7, 12].”

  • According to classical theory, gravitational collapse produces a black hole that settles rapidly to a stationary axisymmetric equilibrium state characterized by mass, angular momentum, and electric charge.

    “It is now generally believed that, according to classical theory, a gravitational collapse will produce a black hole which will settle down rapidly to a stationary axisymmetric equilibrium state characterized by its mass, angular momentum and electric charge [7, 13].”

  • High curvatures occur in collapsing stars and at the beginning of the present universe, and are hidden from us by an event horizon.

    “From the classical singularity theorems [3-6], one would expect such high curvatures to occur in collapsing stars and, in the past, at the beginning of the present espe se e oone o on oet e ne o e e osones of high curvature to be hidden from us by an event horizon [7].”

  • The decrease in area of the event horizon is caused by a violation of the weak energy condition which arises from the indeterminacy of particle number and energy density in a curved spacetime.

    “The decrease in area of the event horizon is caused by a violation of the weak energy condition [5–7, 12] which arises from the indeterminacy of particle number and energy density in a curved space-time.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
