Can Primordial Black Holes Be Seeds for Early Galaxies in Models Satisfying the Covariant Entropy Bound?

Sidan A, Tom Banks, Willy Fischler

We argue that cosmological models obeying the Covariant Entropy Bound (CEB) mathematically favor states with no localized excitations or one large black hole containing all the ene…

Matrix Multiverses Meet Multiple Mythologies

Sidan A, Tom Banks, Willy Fischler

We present a model in which asymptotically de Sitter universes of various types, and de Sitter (dS) radii , live in the interiors of black holes in a maximally entropic flat $…

Proposal to Search for the CP Violating Electromagnetic Vacuum Angle at the Event Horizon Telescope

Willy Fischler, Tom Banks

We examine the possibility that evidence for a non-zero value of the CP violating coupling might be extracted from Eve…

Holographic Inflation, Primordial Black Holes and Early Structure Formation

Tom Banks, Willy Fischler

Evidence has accumulated that there are supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in the centers of most galaxies, and that these were formed in the very early universe by some as yet unkno…

Fluctuations and Correlations in Causal Diamonds

T. Banks, W. Fischler

We argue that the correlation between the modular Hamiltonians of two causal diamonds related by a finite time translation is equal to the uncertainty in the modular Hamiltonian of…

Holographic Cosmology

T. Banks, W. Fischler

We describe a cosmology of the very early universe, based on the holographic principle of 't Hooft and Susskind. We have described the initial state as a dense black hole fluid. He…
