Ben Freivogel (University of Amsterdam) “A lower bound on the null energy”
–
bstract: I propose an energy-spacetime uncertainty principle. The average null energy in a small region of spacetime can be very negative, while the average over a larger region cannot be as negative. I will prove this result within free field theory, and discuss the prospects for more general proofs, as well as the implications for singularity theorems.
