We review connections between the metric of spacetime and the quantum fluctuations of fields. In particular, we discuss the finding that the spacetime metric can be expressed entirely in terms of the 2-point correlators of the fluctuations…
A consistent definition of high dimensional compactified quantum field theory without breaking the Kaluza-Klein tower is proposed. It is possible in the limit when the size of compact dimensions is of the order of the cut off. This limit is…

If reality has finite information content, space has finite fidelity. The quantum wave function that encodes spatial relationships may be limited to information that can be transmitted in a "Planck broadcast", with a bandwidth given by the…
Remarkably accurate fine structure constants are calculated from assumptions further developed from two earlier publications. We have put together a series of energy scales related to various physical phenomena such as the Planck scale, a…
In this paper a new approach to investigation of Quantum and Statistical Mechanics of the Early Universe (Planck scale) - density matrix deformation - is proposed. The deformation is understood as an extension of a particular theory by…
The uniform information density (UID) hypothesis posits a preference among language users for utterances structured such that information is distributed uniformly across a signal. While its implications on language production have been well…
The uniform information density (UID) hypothesis proposes that speakers aim to distribute information evenly throughout a text, balancing production effort and listener comprehension difficulty. However, language typically does not maintain…
Large extra dimensions lower the Planck scale to values soon accessible. Motivated by String Theory, the models of large extra dimensions predict a vast number of new effects in the energy range of the lowered Planck scale, among them the…
A system of two closely spaced atoms interacting through a vacuum electromagnetic field is considered. It is demonstrated that radiative decay in such a system resulting from photon exchange gives rise to a definite amount of information…
We derive the Planck law from a classical variational principle over probability densities, without invoking quantum states, quantized oscillator energies, or ensemble averages. We construct a generalized free energy functional involving…
We consider the Random-Cluster model on $(\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z})^d$ with parameters $p \in (0,1)$ and $q\ge 1$. This is a generalization of the standard bond percolation (with open probability $p$) which is biased by a factor $q$ raised to…
A general model is proposed for time-varying coupling constants in field theory, assuming the ultraviolet cutoff is a varying entity in the expanding universe. It is assumed that the cutoff depends on the scale factor of the universe and…
The recent Planck Legacy 2018 release has confirmed the presence of an enhanced lensing amplitude in CMB power spectra compared to that predicted in the standard $\Lambda$CDM model. A closed universe can provide a physical explanation for…
The recent unidentified 3.5 keV X-ray line signal can be explained by decaying moduli dark matter with a cutoff scale one order of magnitude smaller than the Planck scale. We show that such modulus field with the low cutoff scale follows a…
We show that ultraviolet information can be extracted from low-energy expansion coefficients, assuming analyticity and the absence of massless singularities. By reorganizing the low-energy expansion through an inverse Laplace transform and…

A renowned information-theoretic formula by Shannon expresses the mutual information rate of a white Gaussian channel with a stationary Gaussian input as an integral of a simple function of the power spectral density of the channel input.…
Over the past few years, evidence has begun to accumulate suggesting that spacetime may undergo a "spontaneous dimensional reduction" to two dimensions near the Planck scale. I review some of this evidence, and discuss the (still very…
The issue of the existence and possible triviality of the Euclidean quantum scalar field in dimension 4 is investigated by using some large deviations techniques. As usual, the field $\varphi_{d}^{4}$ is obtained as a limit of regularized…
