There is a theory that says blackholes form on a border of energy differences and are act as a compensation mechanism allowing balancing the energies out between adjacent areas with different properties. When energy 'flows' out of our visible space it appears as a blackhole. When it flows in - it appears as a star.

I probably don’t understand, but how is a star energy flowing into visible space? The matter is already present and visible in space. It isn’t going anywhere or coming from anywhere mysterious. It’s visible radiation from processes occurring in stars. Black holes seem to be more than light or energy dissipating, though.

What is flowing is basic matter out of which all is made. It breaks down to more basic components as it leaves one space and flows to the other the theory says. Once these basic components enter the other space they assemble into configurations compatible with energy of the other 'space'.

Doesn't sound like any theory of black holes I've ever heard. Reference please...

Don't we pretty much understand stars though? Big ball of gas, hydrogen fusion, etc. Are there any unaccounted energy outflows that would leave room for something like this?

The main reason we look at black holes so hard is because quantum mechanics can't describe gravity (yet) and general relativity just shrugs and says "I don't do inside event horizons, buddy, but why do you care? You can't even experiment inside one". So it's one of those head-scratchers where the math isn't really helping us figure out _what_ is going on, and the darn things are really hard to observe.

A light in the sky could be a star of the kind we understand, but could it be something else? Could we say we understand all stars if we don't understand black-holes? Could the disappearance of light/matter be balancing its appearance?

General Relativity works just fine inside the event horizon. The issue with GR is that it's a classical theory, but the fundamental laws of the universe are quantum.

What theory says this? Citation?

There was a self-published book title "The Anisotropic Universe" in the early 2000. I can't find it anymore.

wow, i never thought i would be downvoted for mentioning a theory :) -4 and not once anybody wondered what theory that is.

Your theory sounds as if it was immediately preceded by a bong rip. Complaints of downvotes attract downvotes. And you've not responded to two people explicitly inquiring for details about your theory

Thanks, for pointing out. I missed those responses.
