Echoes of Love Beyond the Horizon: A Bridge to Recovering Information from Black Holes

We provide further evidence that information is preserved during black hole evaporation and may be recoverable, provided quantum gravitational effects resolve the singularity. We demonstrate that due to quantum gravity effects, black holes acquire quantum hair, manifested by non-zero tidal Love numbers, revealing a distinct internal structure similar to neutron stars. Interestingly, the magnitude of these Love numbers is Planck-scale suppressed, implying significant tidal deformation in the late stage of evaporation. Depending on the final state of the black hole, information may be retrieved through correlations in Hawking radiation, baby universes, or via remnants.
