چکیده

Recently Bousso conjectured the entropy crossing a certain light-like hypersurface is bounded by the surface area. We point out a number of difficulties with this conjecture.

A covariant entropy conjecture on cosmological dynamical horizon

We here propose a covariant entropy conjecture on cosmological dynamical horizon. After the formulation of our conjecture, we test its validity in adiabatically expanding universes with open, flat and closed spatial geometry, where our conjecture can also be viewed as a cosmological version of the generalized second law of thermodynamics in some sense.

Light Sheets and the Covariant Entropy Conjecture

We examine the holography bound suggested by Bousso in his covariant entropy conjecture, and argue that it is violated because his notion of light sheet is too generous. We suggest its replacement by a weaker bound.

A covariant entropy bound conjecture on the dynamical horizon

As a compelling pattern for the holographic principle, our covariant entropy bound conjecture is proposed for more general dynamical horizons. Then we apply our conjecture to ΛCDM cosmological models, where we find it imposes a novel upper bound 10 on the cosmological constant for our own universe by taking into account the dominant entropy contribution from super-massive black holes, which thu...

Covariant entropy conjecture and concordance cosmological models

Recently a covariant entropy conjecture has been proposed for dynamical horizons. We apply this conjecture to concordance cosmological models, namely, those cosmological models filled with perfect fluids, in the presence of a positive cosmological constant. As a result, we find this conjecture has a severe constraint power. Not only does this conjecture rule out those cosmological models disfav...

On estimation of the entropy infimum for the output of the Weyl channels being covariant with respect to the maximum commutative group of unitaries

We estimate the von Neumann entropy infimum for the output of the Weyl channels being covariant with respect to the maximum commutative group. In qubit case, such the class includes the quantum depolarizing channel and the ”two-Pauli” channel as well. For the dimesion d = 2 our approach allows to prove the additivity conjecture for the Holevo-Schumacher-Westmoreland bound. Our method is based u...
