Nature abhors a horizon

The information paradox can be resolved if we recognize that the wave functional in gravity Psi[g] should be considered on the whole of superspace, the space of possible g. The largeness of the Bekenstein entropy implies a vast space of gravitational solutions, which are conjectured to be fuzzball configurations. In the WKB approximation, the wave functional for a collapsing shell is oscillatory in a small region of superspace, and the classical approximation picks out this part. But the wave functional will be damped (under the barrier) in the remainder of this vast superspace. We perform a simple computation to show that at the threshold of black hole formation, the barrier is lowered enough to make the latter part oscillatory; this alters the classical evolution and avoids horizon formation.
