We study the black hole entropy as entanglement entropy and propose a resolution to the species puzzle. This resolution comes out naturally due to the fact that in the presence of $N$ species the universal gravitational cutoff is $\Lambda=M_{\rm Planck}/\sqrt{N}$, as opposed to $M_{\rm Planck}$. We demonstrate consistency of our solution by showing the equality of the two entropies in explicit examples in which the relation between $M_{\rm Planck}$ and $\Lambda$ is known from the fundamental…

Bounds on black hole entropy in unitary theories of gravity
• Physics

We consider unitary and weakly coupled theories of gravity that extend Einstein gravity and reduce to it asymptotically at large distances. Our discussion is restricted to such theories that,

Based on well-known properties of semi-classical black holes, we show that weakly-coupled string theory can be viewed as a theory of N = 1/g_s^2 particle species. This statement is a string theoretic
Vacuum entanglement and black hole entropy of gauge fields
Black holes in general relativity carry an entropy whose value is given by the Bekenstein-Hawking formula, but whose statistical origin remains obscure. Such horizons also possess an entanglement

Recently within the context of a microscopic quantum theory, the Black Hole's Quantum N‐Portrait, it was shown that continuous global symmetries are compatible with quantum black hole physics. In the
Entanglement Entropy of Black Holes
The focus in the review is on the systematic use of the conical singularity method and the puzzling behavior of the entanglement entropy due to fields, which non-minimally couple to gravity, which is illustrated on two- and four-dimensional examples.

Quantum Gravity in Species Regime
A large number of particle species allows to formulate quantum gravity in a special double-scaling limit, the species limit. In this regime, quantum gravitational amplitudes simplify substantially.
Micro black holes and the democratic transition

Unitarity implies that the evaporation of microscopic quasiclassical black holes cannot be universal in different particle species. This creates a puzzle, since it conflicts with the thermal nature

We present an evidence, that the volumes of compactified spaces as well as the areas of black hole horizons must be quantized in Planck units. This quantization has phenomenological consequences,
A ug 2 01 0 Entanglement entropy of round spheres
We propose that the logarithmic term in the entanglement entropy computed in a conformal field theory for a (d−2)-dimensional round sphere in Minkowski spacetime is identical to the logarithmic term

Black hole bound on the number of species and quantum gravity at CERN LHC

In theories with a large number N of particle species, black hole physics imposes an upper bound on the mass of the species equal to M-Planck/root N. This bound suggests a novel solution to the
