abstract

There is strong evidence that the area of any surface limits the information content of adjacent spacetime regions, at 10^(69) bits per square meter. We review the developments that have led to the recognition of this entropy bound, placing special emphasis on the quantum properties of black holes. The construction of light-sheets, which associate relevant spacetime regions to any given surface, is discussed in detail. We explain how the bound is tested and demonstrate its validity in a wide range of examples. A universal relation between geometry and information is thus uncovered. It has yet to be explained. The holographic principle asserts that its origin must lie in the number of fundamental degrees of freedom involved in a unified description of spacetime and matter. It must be manifest in an underlying quantum theory of gravity. We survey some successes and challenges in implementing the holographic principle.

Geometric noise spectrum in interferometers

hep-th · 2026-01-25 · conditional · novelty 6.0

The noise spectrum an interferometer would see from quantum spacetime jitter is computed for vacuum, thermal, squeezed, and scalar-backreaction states; all are Planck-suppressed.

Dark Matter from Holography

astro-ph.CO · 2025-11-13 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Holographic dark matter arises from the Ricci cutoff in a baryon-plus-radiation universe, matching observed densities and reversing the sign of pre-existing negative vacuum energy to match observations.

Are Flat Minima an Illusion?

cs.LG · 2026-03-24 · conditional · novelty 5.0

The paper argues flat minima are an illusion and that a reparameterization-invariant 'weakness' score predicts generalization where raw sharpness fails.

  • Wormholes as red herrings: reflection positivity and the reconstruction of unitary quantum field theories hep-th · 2026-07-01 · unverdicted · none · ref 15 · internal anchor

    Unitary QFTs are determined up to unitary isomorphism by closed-manifold partition functions; every reflection-positive partition function comes from a unitary QFT, so spatial wormholes do not break Hilbert-space factorization once the full charged spectrum is included.

  • Traversable Wormholes Supported by Entropy-Inspired Effective Matter Sectors gr-qc · 2026-05-29 · unverdicted · none · ref 61 · internal anchor

    Modified entropy profiles from Barrow, Tsallis, Kaniadakis, logarithmic, and exponential entropies can serve as effective sources for traversable wormholes.

  • Quantum Spacetime, Quantum Gravity and Gravitized Quantum Theory gr-qc · 2026-04-21 · unverdicted · none · ref 42

    Quantum spacetime with a non-commutative dual explains the fixed Born rule of quantum theory and leads to gravitized quantum mechanics featuring dynamical probabilities and higher-order interference.
