Semiclassical gravity predicts that de Sitter space has a finite entropy. We suggest a picture for Euclidean de Sitter space in string theory, and use the AdS/CFT correspondence to argue that de Sitter entropy can be understood as the number of degrees of freedom in a quantum mechanical dual.

  1. Gibbons-Hawking Entropy and BMN Strings

    hep-th 2025-11 conditional novelty 6.0

    A proposed universal finite entropy bound for quantum gravity is introduced and linked to the Gibbons-Hawking entropy of our universe, with BMN strings suggested as an unresolved test.
