We prove the generalized Covariant Entropy Bound, $\Delta S\leq (A-A')/4G\hbar$, for light-sheets with initial area $A$ and final area $A'$. The entropy $\Delta S$ is defined as a difference of von Neumann entropies of an arbitrary state…
Bousso has conjectured that in any spacetime satisfying Einstein's equation and satisfying the dominant energy condition, the "entropy flux" S through any null hypersurface L generated by geodesics with non-positive expansion starting from…
A set of sufficient conditions for the generalized covariant entropy bound given by Strominger and Thompson is as follows: Suppose that the entropy of matter can be described by an entropy current $s^a$. Let $k^a$ be any null vector along…
Exact cosmological solutions are obtained for a five dimensional inhomogeneous fluid distribution along with a Brans-Dicke type of scalar field. The set includes varied forms of matter field including $\rho+p=0$, where p is the 3D isotropic…
Several arguments suggest that the entropy density at high energy density $\rho$ should be given by the expression $s=K\sqrt{\rho/G}$, where $K$ is a constant of order unity. On the other hand the covariant entropy bound requires that the…
We study the evolution of bubble spacetimes in vacuum and electrovac scenarios by numerical means. We find strong evidence against the formation of naked singularities in (i) scenarios with negative masses displaying initially collapsing…
In discussions of Bousso's Covariant Entropy Bound, the Null Energy Condition is always assumed, as a sufficient {\em but not necessary} condition which helps to ensure that the entropy on any lightsheet shall necessarily be finite. The…
Bousso's entropy bound is a conjecture that the entropy through a null hypersurface emanating from a two-dimensional surface with a nonpositive expansion is bounded by the area of that two-dimensional surface. We investigate the validity of…
We examine Bousso's covariant entropy bound conjecture in the context of radiation filled, spatially flat, Friedmann-Robertson-Walker models. The bound is violated near the big bang. However, the hope has been that quantum gravity effects…
We conjecture the following entropy bound to be valid in all space-times admitted by Einstein's equation: Let A be the area of any two-dimensional surface. Let L be a hypersurface generated by surface-orthogonal null geodesics with…
We explore the holographic principle in the context of asymptotically flat spacetimes. In analogy with the AdS/CFT scenario we analyse the asympotically symmetry group of this class of spacetimes, the so called Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS)…
The covariant entropy bound states that the entropy, S, of matter on a light-sheet cannot exceed a quarter of its initial area, A, in Planck units. The gravitational entropy of black holes saturates this inequality. The entropy of matter…
In order to find out whether empty singular boundaries can arise in higher dimensional Gravity, we study the solution of Einstein's equations consisting in a ($N+2$)-dimensional static and hyperplane symmetric perfect fluid satisfying the…
If we assume that the initial conditions for the universe were such that there was no volume-extensive entropy `at the beginning of time' (which is true in Linde's chaotic inflation), we can formulate a covariant holographic bound on the…
We analyze the validity of the generalized covariant entropy bound near the apparent horizon of isotropic expanding cosmological models. We encounter violations of the bound for cosmic times smaller than a threshold. By introducing an…
The present thesis aims at providing a unified description of radiative phase spaces in General Relativity for any value of the cosmological constant using covariant phase space methods. We start by considering generic asymptotically…
We study the properties of cosmological density perturbations in a multi-component system consisting of a scalar field and a perfect fluid. We discuss the number of degrees of freedom completely describing the system, introduce a full set…
The entropy bound conjecture concerning black hole dynamical horizons is proved. The conjecture states, if a dynamical horizon, $D_H$, is bounded by two surfaces with areas of $A_B$ and $\abp$ ($\abp>A_B$), then the entropy, $S_D$, that…
The stability of naked singularities in self-similar collapse is probed using scalar waves. It is shown that the multipoles of a minimally coupled massless scalar field propagating on a spherically symmetric self-similar background…
We consider a massive scalar field with arbitrary coupling in $\mathbf{S}^{1}\times \mathbf{S}^{3}$ space, which mimics the thermal expanding universe, and calculate explicitly all relevant thermodynamical functions in the low- and…
