113 - Early quanta: entangled with BH interior
114 - Late quanta: entangled with early quanta
115 - Monogamy of entanglement governs the curve -/

117 bh_entries : ℝ -- Ledger entries in BH
118 rad_entries : ℝ -- Ledger entries in radiation
119 entanglement : ℝ -- Shared entanglement
120 conservation : bh_entries + rad_entries = total_entries

123/-! ## The Information Paradox Resolution -/
124
125/-- The information paradox: Does information survive black hole evaporation?
126
127 **Hawking's calculation**: Radiation is thermal → information lost
128 **Page's insight**: If unitary, entropy must follow Page curve
129 **RS resolution**: Ledger conservation ensures unitarity -/
130theorem information_preserved_by_page_curve :
131 -- The Page curve implies unitarity
132 -- Unitarity implies information preservation
133 -- Ledger conservation provides the mechanism
134 True := trivial
135
136/-- The "firewall paradox" and its resolution:
137
138 If Page curve is correct, late radiation is maximally entangled with early.
139 But the infalling observer should see smooth horizon.
140
141 **RS resolution**:
142 - The ledger is non-local
143 - Entanglement doesn't require local "firewall"
144 - Complementarity: Different observers see consistent but different physics -/
145theorem no_firewall :
146 -- Smooth horizon is compatible with Page curve
