The connection between maximal sets of mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) in a prime-power dimensional Hilbert space and finite phase-space geometries is well known. In this article we classify MUBs according to their degree of covariance with…

We provide a class of QFTs which exhibit dissipation above a threshold energy, thereby breaking Lorentz invariance. Unitarity is preserved by coupling the fields to additional degrees of freedom (heavy fields) which introduce the rest…

We provide a gravitational argument in favour of the covariant holographic entanglement entropy proposal. In general time-dependent states, the proposal asserts that the entanglement entropy of a region in the boundary field theory is given…

Modern applications in statistics, computer science and network science have seen tremendous values of finer matrix spectral perturbation theory. In this paper, we derive a generic $\ell_{2\rightarrow\infty}$ eigenspace perturbation bound…

We express the entropy of a scalar field phi directly in terms of its spacetime correlation function W(x,y) = <phi(x) phi(y)>, assuming that the higher correlators are of "Gaussian" form. The resulting formula associates an entropy S(R) to…

We study the convergence of states under continuous-time depolarizing channels with full rank fixed points in terms of the relative entropy. The optimal exponent of an upper bound on the relative entropy in this case is given by the…

We argue that the presence of \emph{any} exact $U(1)$ higher-form symmetry, under mild assumptions, presents a fundamental obstruction to ergodicity under unitary dynamics in lattice systems with local interactions and finite on-site…

We apply the covariant entropy bound argument supporting the de Sitter swampland conjecture to the quintessence model, to find out the condition for the background to be unstable. More concretely, the background is unstable when the matter…

This paper builds on our previous work in which we showed that, for all connected semisimple linear Lie groups $G$ acting on a non-compactly causal symmetric space $M = G/H$, every irreducible unitary representation of $G$ can be realized…

The various entropy bounds that exist in the literature suggest that spacetime is fundamentally discrete, and hint at an underlying relationship between geometry and "information". The foundation of this relationship is yet to be uncovered,…
