Famous Samir D. Mathur Quotes

“The black hole information paradox is probably the most important issue for fundamental physics today. If we cannot understand its resolution, then we cannot understand how quantum theory and gravity work together. Yet very few people seem to understand how robust the original Hawking arguments are and what exactly it would take to resolve the problem.”

Samir D. Mathur

Mathur, Samir D. "What exactly is the information paradox? http://books.google.com/books?id=RfDUXYSSyA0C&pg=PA3." In Physics of Black Holes, pp. 3–48. Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg, 2009. (quote from p. 3)
