Evolution between slices in D>2 curved spacetimes shifts the state between unitarily inequivalent Fock representations; the physical representation can be fixed locally by a positive-frequency condition equivalent, in leading order, to the Hadamard condition.

abstract
Hawking's argument for information loss in black hole evaporation rests on the assumption of independent Hilbert spaces for the interior and exterior of a black hole. We argue that such independence cannot be established without incorporating strong gravitational effects that undermine locality and invalidate the use of quantum field theory in a semiclassical background geometry. These considerations should also play a role in a deeper understanding of horizon complementarity.

Challenges for describing unitary evolution in nontrivial geometries: pictures and representations
Evolution between slices in D>2 curved spacetimes shifts the state between unitarily inequivalent Fock representations; the physical representation can be fixed locally by a positive-frequency condition equivalent, in leading order, to the Hadamard condition.
