Replica wormhole and AMPS firewall

Abstract: We investigate the potential for generating an AMPS firewall from the replica wormhole topology, which describes the post-Page time spacetime in the evaporation process of a black hole. Our analysis reveals that this topology gives rise to a Dirac delta force experienced by infalling particles at the event horizon, consistent with the AMPS firewall hypothesis. This force, proportional to the particle's total energy squared, is a direct consequence of the inherent Dirac delta in the Ricci scalar of the replica wormhole. We provide a regularization scheme for this force, which is crucial for obtaining physically meaningful results. Notably, our approach suggests that considering the replica wormhole resolves both the information paradox and the AMPS argument regarding the monogamy of entanglement simultaneously, yielding a more coherent framework.
