Journal Article
Entropy bound and unitarity of scattering amplitudes
2021
Overview
A
bstract
We establish that unitarity of scattering amplitudes imposes universal entropy bounds. The maximal entropy of a self-sustained quantum field object of radius
R
is equal to its surface area and at the same time to the inverse running coupling
α
evaluated at the scale
R
. The saturation of these entropy bounds is in one-to-one correspondence with the non-perturbative saturation of unitarity by 2
→ N
particle scattering amplitudes at the point of optimal truncation. These bounds are more stringent than Bekenstein’s bound and in a consistent theory all three get saturated simultaneously. This is true for all known entropy-saturating objects such as solitons, instantons, baryons, oscillons, black holes or simply lumps of classical fields. We refer to these collectively as
saturons
and show that in renormalizable theories they behave in all other respects like black holes. Finally, it is argued that the confinement in SU(
N
) gauge theory can be understood as a direct consequence of the entropy bounds and unitarity.
