I'm just getting back into it. Is a black hole theorized as having 0 diameter?

GRR

Wish I knew more (than I can ever know). Does the "leakiness" of black holes occur because space (and gravity) are not a seamless continuum, being grainy (quantum) at the fundemental level?

GRR

Something that has bothered me for a long time is my ignorance concerning the relationship between theoritical "requirements" that gravity be propagated by a force carrying particle and the notion that gravity is experienced because matter causes curvature in space. I want to say "You can't have it both ways". My intuition is that gravity is fundamentally different than the other 3 forces. I conceptualize gravitational effects as space collapsing into matter (space is growing as a whole because of the outward momentum of matter that decreases the mass density of the universe). Objects "obeying" gravity could be seen as at rest relative to their local space-time reference.

GRR

I wonder if "trivial topology" of the behavior of information in a black hole is reflective of reality. Asymptotic solutions describe conditions that "exist" inside a black hole. If that is true, we'll never know.
