A fundamental problem of quantum gravity is to understand the quantum evolution of black holes. While aspects of their evolution are understood asymptotically, a more detailed description of their evolving wavefunction can be provided. This gives a possible foundation for studying effects that unitarize this evolution, which in turn may provide important clues regarding the quantum nature of gravity.
