| Research Abstract |
Black Hole (BH) is the spacetime region affected by extremely strong gravity, and nothing can escape from BH. In order to understand deeper the micro-scale properties of gravity via researching BH, we consider two problems : (1) What does happen at the end of BH evaporation? (2) It is already known that, when a single BH exists, its entropy is given by the area of BH (Entropy-Area law). It has been conjectured without proof that the entropy-area law holds for systems including some BHs. Is this conjecture correct? Then, the results of research are as follows. Result on (1) : BH can not evaporate completely due to the law of entropy increase, and a remnant of Planck scale should remain. Result on (2) : The conjecture is wrong, and the entropy-area law does not hold in the system including some BHs. Furthermore, it is also found that the potential of gravity has finite value within a short length scale such as Planck length (contrary to the past expectation which expects that the gravitational potential is negative infinity at short length scale).
