GUP and the no-cloning theorem

Motivated by a recent work by Yongwan Gim, Hwajin Um, and Wontae Kim, we investigate the validity of the no-cloning theorem in the context of generalized uncertainty principle. In particular, in the presence of linear and quadratic terms of momentum in generalized uncertainty principle, we first compute the energy density at a given modified temperature and then using the modified Stefan-Boltzmann law we derive the modified Page time. Finally, we calculate the modified required energy for the information to be encoded into a message and be sent to an observer inside the black hole.


I. INTRODUCTION
In 1974, S.W. Hawking decided to introduce black holes to the quantum world [1]. This "marriage" of General Relativity (GR) and Quantum Mechanics (QM) proved that black holes are not really black but they radiate (Hawking radiation) [2]. At the same time, the Information Loss Paradox was revealed [3] and though several resolutions have been proposed [4][5][6][7], it still remains a yet-to-be-solved problem.
One of the resolutions is based on Hawking radiation and in particular, one assumes that the Hawking radiation encodes the black hole information. In this context, an infalling observer (Alice) is crossing the event horizon of the black hole carrying all information of the infalling matter state. Outside of the horizon, the local observer (Bob) collects all the information of the infalling matter state which is reflected on the horizon in the form Hawking radiation.
If after time at least equal to Page time [8], Bob decides to dive in the black hole then Alice can send him all the information encoded in a message. Thus, Bob will have in his hands two copies of the information which will be a violation of the no-cloning theorem [9]. The no-cloning theorem was saved by Susskind, Thorlacius and Uglum [10] who proposed that there is a stretched horizon just outside of the event horizon. The information of the infalling matter state heats up the stretched horizon which reradiates the information as Hawking radiation. Therefore, a copy of information is already inside the black hole heading to the singularity and one more copy is radiated outside the horizon. However, there is no way an observer to observe both copies simultaneously time since this will violate the principle of complementarity which is one of the principles of QM. In particular, if one perform a gedanken experiment in the Schwarzschild black hole spacetime the required energy to encode in a message all information that Alice carries and send this message to Bob when he is inside the black hole has to be super-Planckian [11].
Of course, one may claim that the marriage between GR and QM has issues because we are trying to keep all principles of QM untouched. Maybe it is necessary to modify QM and not GR. In this line of thought, one considers modifications of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle (HUP) known as Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. So, one may suggest that GUP can play a crucial role in the solution of the Information Loss Paradox [22][23][24] and this work aims to shed some light on this direction.
The remainder of this paper is organized as follows. In Section II, we briefly derive the expressions for the Page time and the required energy in order the information Alice carries to be encoded into a message and to be sent to Bob inside the Schwarzschild black hole in the framework of HUP and quadratic GUP. In Section III, we calculate the Page time and the required energy in the presence of linear and quadratic terms in momentum of GUP.
Finally, in Section IV we briefly present our results and some concluding comments are given. In this work, we use the natural units = c = 1.

II. HUP, QUADRATIC GUP, AND THE NON-CLONING THEOREM
In this section, we will briefly summarize the derivation of Page time, i.e., t p , and that of the required energy, i.e., ∆E, as presented in Ref. [24] . This energy is needed in order the information that Alice carries to be encoded into a message and then to be sent to Bob who is already inside the Schwarzschild black hole. For this reason, we utilize the Kruskal-Szekeres diagram of the Schwarzschild black hole [25]. The Schwarzschild black hole metric in Kruskal-Szekeres coordinates reads with M to be the black hole mass, are the Kruskal-Szekeres coordinates and r * = r + 2GM ln r−2GM

2GM
is the Regge-Wheeler radial coordinate. It is well known that the area, i.e., A, and Hawking temperature, i.e., T H , of the Schwarzschild black hole are given as while the Stefan-Boltzman law reads where σ is the Stefan-Boltzman constant.
As already mentioned in the Introduction, Alice will travel from the exterior quadrant (I) into a Schwarzschild black hole singularity through the black hole interior quadrant (II). She will enter the horizon at V A and will practice free fall inside the black hole after the horizon but still far away from singularity, i.e., she is in an inertial frame according to GR. Using a Hawking radiation detector, Bob is communicating with Alice while she is getting closer to the stretched horizon. Bob is standing just outside the stretched horizon not doing anything and will enter the horizon at V B . In a time that is greater or equal to Page time, Alice has to send her messages to Bob before he meets the singularity so . Using the metric given in Eq. (1), one can compute the proper time ∆τ that Alice needs to send messages to Bob who remains near the horizon at U A and the horizon is located at r H = 2GM . Thus, we consider that ∆U A = U A and ∆V A near the horizon gets a fixed value.

i. HUP
In this case, there are no quantum-gravity corrections, so the HUP is of the form ∆x∆p ≥ 1 (5) and in terms of energy and time becomes ∆E∆τ ≥ 1 .
Employing the Stefan-Boltzmann law and Hawking temperature, the Page time reads and the proper time will be Therefore, the required energy for Alice to encode all information in a message and send it to Bob will be It is evident that the required energy is larger than the black hole mass, i.e., ∆E M , so Alice needs super-Planckian energies to encode her message and send it to Bob. Therefore, there is no violation of the no-cloning theorem.
ii. Quadratic GUP In this case, we consider the GUP with a quadratic term in momentum [12][13][14][15][16][17][18], namely with α GU P to be the dimensionless GUP parameter and the Planck length to be p = √ G. It is obvious that the temperature of the black hole will no longer be the Hawking temperature but a modified one [19] which is of the form Employing the Stefan-Boltzmann law and Hawking temperature, the Page time reads [24] and the proper time will now be computed from the metric given by Eq. (1), if Eq. (12) is substituted in Therefore, the required energy for Alice to encode all information in a message and send it to Bob will be [24] ∆E It can be shown graphically that the required energy is larger than the black hole mass, i.e., ∆E M , so Alice needs super-Planckian energies to encode her message and send it to Bob. Therefore, there is no violation of the no-cloning theorem.

III. LINEAR AND QUADRATIC GUP AND THE NO-CLONING THEOREM
Following the analysis in Ref. [24], we will now calculate the corrected required energy for information cloning, when a version of GUP with linear and quadratic terms [21] is utilized.
The linear and quadratic GUP is of the form where α = α 0 p = α o /m p with α 0 to be the dimensionless GUP constant 1 and p = m −1 p = √ G. 1 To avoid confusion upon comparison of our work with Ref. [24], our dimensionless GUP parameter α 0 is related to the corresponding α GU P of Ref. [24] through the equation α 2 0 = α GU P .
For symmetry purposes, we are interested in mirror-symmetric states, i.e., p 2 = 0, hence (∆p) 2 = p 2 , thus which renders momentum corresponding to the fundamental length as The Hawking radiation emitted from a Schwarzschild black hole with mass M and event horizon radius at r Sch = 2M G will be considered as photons bounded in a cube of length L.
These photons will satisfy a GUP-modified de Broglie relation which in the light of Eq. (16), their average wavelength λ set equal to the minimum uncertainty on position, i.e., ∆x min , now reads At this point, it should be noted that in Ref. [24] there is no linear term in momentum, i.e., (−αp), hence it is expected that this term will affect the rest of calculation of the energy.
The corresponding frequency becomes It is obvious that for such de Broglie waves (E = p) the frequency can be written as At this point, it is crucial to recognize the constraint 0 ≤ E ≤ 1 6α [1 + √ 13] imposed by Eq. (20) in order to avoid the negative frequencies.
To compute the Page time, one has first to compute the energy density of the oscillating photon modes in the cube. Therefore, we will follow a similar analysis with the one for the derivation of Stefan-Boltzmann law. Specifically, the standard energy density is defined as where g(ν) is the number of oscillating photon modes in the infinitesimal interval [ν, ν + dν] andĒ is the average energy per oscillating photon mode which reads In addition, from Eq. (20), it is easily seen that Substituting Eq. (23) and Eq. (24) into Eq. (22), the energy density of such "Planckian" photons reads As a reminder, Eq. (25) 8π with the temperature T to be the GUP-modified one since we are working now in the framework of linear and quadratic GUP. It is noteworthy that the three integrals that appear in the RHS of Eq. (26) are all Bose integrals. The Bose integral, I B (n), is defined as which is equal to with ζ(n) to be the Riemann zeta function and Γ(n) is the gamma function.
The specific expression for the GUP-modified temperature is given in Ref. [27] by Furthermore, the GUP-modified Stefan-Boltzmann law now reads and employing Eq. (27) and Eq. (31), Page time for the Schwarzschild black hole now becomes .
It is noteworthy that here we have assumed that the uncertainty in the position of photons when in the black hole, is proportional to the size of the black hole and thus the photon Utilizing Eq. (13) and the Page time given by Eq. (35), the proper time now reads The required energy for Alice to encode information in a message and send it to Bob is now and by expanding in terms of the dimensionless GUP parameter α 0 , the proper time now It is evident that one cannot decide if this energy required to send the message from Alice to Bob is more or less than the black hole mass when the linear and quadratic GUP terms are taken into account. However, using Fig. 1 one can graphically show that the required energy is less than the black hole mass, i.e., ∆E < M . Therefore, the duplication of information is possible and the no-cloning theorem is violated while the black hole complementarity has to be restated or to be abandoned as a resolution to Information Loss Paradox.

IV. CONCLUSIONS
In this work, we were motivated by the work by Yongwan Gim, Hwajin Um, and Wontae Kim [24], and following their analysis we found the Page time as well as the required energy in order the infalling observer named Alice to encode all information she carries into a message and send it to a local observer named Bob when he is inside the black hole. Bob was initially standing was just outside the stretched horizon and was collecting the information Alice carries via the Hawking radiation which stems from the stretched horizon which is heated up by the information of the infalling matter state. We have shown that in the context of GUP with linear and quadratic terms in momenta, Bob can simultaneously hold in his hands the information from Alice inside the black hole and the same information which was collected by him while standing outside the stretched horizon. Thus, adopting the syllogism developed in Ref. [24] the duplication of information is possible.
Therefore, the statement that the no-cloning theorem is safe even in the presence of GUP is inaccurate. Our present paper stands as a counter-example to this statement.
Furthermore, it seems that the black hole complementarity which was proposed as a resolution for the Information Loss Paradox has to be restated or to be completely abandoned.
However, we believe that the Information Loss Paradox which is related to such a fundamental concept such as the information of a system can not be resolved using semiclassical methods or phenomenological models of Quantum Gravity. The resolution to such foundational problems can be offered only by a concrete theory of Quantum Gravity which is still to be developed.
