How does infalling EM radiation affect a black hole?
Black hole #1 is contained in an otherwise empty universe, no sources of EM radiation. Black hole #2 has been surrounded by intense sources of gamma radiation for a long time.
Do these black holes have identical properties?

Gamma radiation falls into black hole #2, increasing its mass ever so slightly.
No. The black hole in the universe with radiation would be more massive. It would have captured photons and grown while the solitary black hole would lose mass to Hawking radiation.

Black holes, according to their current formulation in general relativity, have exactly three properties: mass, angular momentum (how fast they're spinning), and electrical charge. They have no other discernible properties, according to the No-Hair Theorem.
So under current models of black holes, the latter would be exactly the same in all but one aspect, with the only difference being a higher mass from the additional photons absorbed.
Can a black hole absorb its own Hawking radiation?

Can a man suck his own dick?
>>8288219
This is trivial. Of course a man can do that.
What does it tell about the equivalence of everything that EM radiation itself can theoretically collapse into a black hole given a high enough energy density?

A necessary but not sufficient condition.
