Black to white hole transition as a change of the topology of the event horizon

Abstract We prove that the black to white hole transition theorized in several papers can be described as a change in the topology of the event horizon. We also show, using the theory of cobordism due to Milnor and Wallace, how to obtain the full manifold containing the transition.
