The non-zero value of Planck constant $hbar$ underlies the emergence of several inequalities that must be satisfied in the quantum realm, the most prominent one being the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. Among these inequalities, the Bekenstein bound provides a universal limit on the entropy that can be contained in a localized quantum system of given size and total energy. In this letter, we explore how the Bekenstein bound is affected when the Heisenberg uncertainty relation is deformed so as to accommodate gravitational effects at the Planck scale (Generalized Uncertainty Principle). By resorting to very general arguments, we derive in this way a generalized Bekenstein bound. Physical implications of this result are discussed for both cases of positive and negative values of the deformation parameter.

We explore the structure of holographic entropy relations (associated with information quantities given by a linear combination of entanglement entropies of spatial sub-partitions of a CFT state with geometric bulk dual). Such entropy relations can be recast in multiple ways, some of which have significant advantages. Motivated by the already-noted simplification of entropy relations when recast in terms of multipartite information, we explore additional simplifications when recast in a new basis, which we dub the K-basis, constructed from perfect tensor structures. For the fundamental information quantities such a recasting is surprisingly compact, in part due to the interesting fact that entropy vectors associated to perfect tensors are in fact extreme rays in the holographic entropy cone (as well as the full quantum entropy cone). More importantly, we prove that all holographic entropy inequalities have positive coefficients when expressed in the K-basis, underlying the key advantage over the entropy basis or the multipartite information basis.
We analyze general uncertainty relations and we show that there can exist such pairs of non--commuting observables $A$ and $B$ and such vectors that the lower bound for the product of standard deviations $Delta A$ and $Delta B$ calculated for these vectors is zero: $Delta A,cdot,Delta B geq 0$. We show also that for some pairs of non--commuting observables the sets of vectors for which $Delta A,cdot,Delta B geq 0$ can be complete (total). The Heisenberg, $Delta t ,cdot, Delta E geq hbar/2$, and Mandelstam--Tamm (MT), $ tau_{A},cdot ,Delta E geq hbar/2$, time--energy uncertainty relations ($tau_{A}$ is the characteristic time for the observable $A$) are analyzed too. We show that the interpretation $tau_{A} = infty$ for eigenvectors of a Hamiltonian $H$ does not follow from the rigorous analysis of MT relation. We show also that contrary to the position--momentum uncertainty relation, the validity of the MT relation is limited: It does not hold on complete sets of eigenvectors of $A$ and $H$.
In recent work we showed that, for a class of conformal field theories (CFT) with Gauss-Bonnet gravity dual, the shear viscosity to entropy density ratio, $eta/s$, could violate the conjectured Kovtun-Starinets-Son viscosity bound, $eta/sgeq1/4pi$. In this paper we argue, in the context of the same model, that tuning $eta/s$ below $(16/25)(1/4pi)$ induces microcausality violation in the CFT, rendering the theory inconsistent. This is a concrete example in which inconsistency of a theory and a lower bound on viscosity are correlated, supporting the idea of a possible universal lower bound on $eta/s$ for all consistent theories.
Studies in string theory and quantum gravity suggest the existence of a finite lower limit $Delta x_0$ to the possible resolution of distances, at the latest on the scale of the Planck length of $10^{-35}m$. Within the framework of the euclidean path integral we explicitly show ultraviolet regularisation in field theory through this short distance structure. Both rotation and translation invariance can be preserved. An example geometry is studied in detail.
We extend the perturbative classical double copy to the analysis of bound systems. We first obtain the leading order perturbative gluon radiation field sourced by a system of interacting color charges in arbitrary time dependent orbits, and test its validity by taking relativistic bremsstrahlung and non-relativistic bound state limits. By generalizing the color to kinematic replacement rules recently used in the context of classical bremsstrahlung, we map the gluon emission amplitude to the radiation fields of dilaton gravity sourced by interacting particles in generic (self-consistent) orbits. As an application, we reproduce the leading post-Newtonian radiation fields and energy flux for point masses in non-relativistic orbits from the double copy of gauge theory.
