Abstract

In the framework of finite-dimensional Fock space models, for a predefined fixed mean number of particles nˉk\bar{n}_{k}, it is shown that there is a ``large'' multi-dimensional subspace snˉks_{\bar{n}_{k}} of initial pure states, in the space SS of all pure states, unitarily evolving to a subspace SnˉkS_{\bar{n}_{k}} of final pure states which yield nˉk\bar{n}_{k}. As an example, in particular it follows that the blackbody form of the mean number of particles nˉk\bar{n}_{k} does not by itself contradict unitarity of black hole evaporation.
