Note on the Bound State Problem

Bound State Problem Solution

A note on state estimation as a convex optimization problem

The Kalman filter computes the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimate of the states for linear state space models with Gaussian noise. We interpret the Kalman filter as the solution to a convex optimization problem, and show that we can generalize the MAP state estimator to any noise with log-concave density function and any combination of linear equality and convex inequality constraints on the s...

Hierarchy Problem and a new Bound State ∗

Instead of solving fine-tuning problems by some automatic method or by cancelling the quadratic divergencies in the hierarchy problem by a symmetry (such as SUSY), we rather propose to look for a unification of the different fine-tuning problems. Our unified fine-tuning postulate is the so-called Multiple Point Principle, according to which there exist many vacuum states with approximately the ...

Note on Bound States and the Bekenstein Bound

In this brief note we draw attention to examples of quantum field theories which may hold interesting lessons for attempts to devise a precise formulation of the Bekenstein bound. Our comments mirror the recent results of Bousso (hep-th/03110223) indicating that the species problem remains an issue for precise formulations of this bound.
