Quantum Information Bound on the Energy
Raphael Bousso, Arvin Shahbazi-Moghaddam, Marija Tomasevic
According to the classical Penrose inequality, the mass at spatial infinity is bounded from below by a function of the area of certain trapped surfaces. We exhibit quantum field th…
Quantum Penrose Inequality
Raphael Bousso, Arvin Shahbazi-Moghaddam, Marija Tomasevic
The classical Penrose inequality specifies a lower bound on the total mass in terms of the area of certain trapped surfaces. This fails at the semiclassical level. We conjecture a…
Entropy Variations and Light Ray Operators from Replica Defects
Srivatsan Balakrishnan, Venkatesa Chandrasekaran, Thomas Faulkner +2
We study the defect operator product expansion (OPE) of displacement operators in free and interacting conformal field theories using replica methods. We show that as approache…
Ignorance is Cheap: From Black Hole Entropy To Energy-Minimizing States In QFT
Raphael Bousso, Venkatesa Chandrasekaran, Arvin Shahbazi-Moghaddam
Behind certain marginally trapped surfaces one can construct a geometry containing an extremal surface of equal, but not larger area. This construction underlies the Engelhardt-Wal…
