Evidence for the possible existence of a quantum process opposite to the famous Hawking radiation (evaporation) of black holes is presented. This new phenomenon could be very relevant in the case of exotic multiple horizon Nariai black holes and in the context of common grand unified theories. This is clearly manifested in the case of the SO(10) GUT, that is here investigated in detail. The remarkable result is obtained, that anti-evaporation can occur there only in the SUSY version of the theory. It is thus concluded that the existence of primordial black holes in the present Universe might be considered as an evidence for supersymmetry.

    Nucleated maximal-mass black holes in de Sitter space undergo thermal Hawking evaporation in smooth quantum states and return fully to the empty de Sitter vacuum.

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Nucleated black holes in de Sitter space evaporate via standard Hawking radiation back to the empty vacuum, rendering nucleation a temporary fluctuation.
