A Quantum Bousso Bound
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Bousso bound requires that one quarter the area of a closed codimension two spacelike surface exceeds the entropy flux across a certain lightsheet terminating on the surface. The bound can be violated by quantum effects such as Hawking radiation. It is proposed that at the quantum level the bound be modified by adding to the area the quantum entanglement entropy across the surface. The validity of this quantum Bousso bound is proven in a two-dimensional large N dilaton gravity theory.

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.
متن کاملFlat space physics from holography
We point out that aspects of quantum mechanics can be derived from the holographic principle, using only a perturbative limit of classical general relativity. In flat space, the covariant entropy bound reduces to the Bekenstein bound. The latter does not contain Newton’s constant and cannot operate via gravitational backreaction. Instead, it is protected by—and in this sense, predicts—the Heise...
متن کاملBousso Entropy Bound for Ideal Gas of Massive Particles
The Bousso entropy bound is investigated for static spherically symmetric configurations of ideal gas with Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac distribution function. Gas of massive particles is considered. The paper is continuation of the previous work concerning the massless case. Special attention is devoted to lightsheets generated by spheres. Conditions under which the Bousso bound can be violate...

The Bousso entropy bound is investigated in a static spherically symmetric spacetime filled with an ideal gas of massless bosons or fermions. Especially lightsheets generated by spheres are considered. A statistical description of the gas is given. Conditions under which the Bousso bound can be violated are discussed and it is shown that a possible violating region cannot be arbitrarily large a...
