ABSTRACT ART. “So, we are faced with the important question: How small can l0 be made?” This is like watching an abstract painting unfold before you. https://lnkd.in/d3sfhP6 View in LinkedIn

ABSOLUTE MINUMUM. “Thus, in order to challenge the GSL in the most extreme situation, one should release the box to fall freely into the black hole from a point located as close as possible to the black-hole horizon. So, we are faced with the important question: How small can l0 be made?” (GSL = the generalized second law of thermodynamics). https://lnkd.in/d3sfhP6 View in LinkedIn

MINIMAL ENTROPY. “The Bekenstein strategy of lowering the body adiabatically into the black hole also guarantees that, for given parameters of the body, the resulting increase in the surface area (entropy) of the black hole is minimized.” https://lnkd.in/d3sfhP6 View in LinkedIn

THE EXTREME TEST. “One learns that, in the dangerous regime, the new horizon is already formed before the body reaches the horizon of the original near-extremal black hole.” https://lnkd.in/d3sfhP6 View in LinkedIn

THE DEPENDENCY. “Interestingly, there are several studies which support the validity of the hoop conjecture. It should be emphasized, however, that there are also known counterexamples to this version of the hoop conjecture which involve charged matter configurations.” https://lnkd.in/d3sfhP6 View in LinkedIn

THE SOLUTION. “In order to resolve this apparent violation of the GSL, we shall henceforth concentrate on the dangerous regime and examine the physical consequences of Thorne’s hoop conjecture in the context of our gedanken experiment.” (GSL = the generalized second law of thermodynamics). https://lnkd.in/d3sfhP6 View in LinkedIn

VIOLATION OF THERMODYNAMICS. “We have seen that if the body can be lowered adiabatically all the way down to the black-hole horizon, as previously assumed in the literature, then for black holes in the near-extremal regime the resulting increase in the black-hole surface area (entropy) may become too small to compensate for the loss of the body’s entropy.” https://lnkd.in/d3sfhP6 View in LinkedIn

FRUSTRATED GOAL. “In philosophy Gödel has never arrived at what he looked for: to arrive at a new view of the world, its basic constituents and the rules of their composition. Gödel did not think that he himself had come close to attaining the ideal of an axiomatic theory of metaphysics. He said several times that he did not even know what the primitive concepts are.” (Wang, 1996) https://lnkd.in/dC2iwn9 View in LinkedIn

THE RESOLUTION. “In the next section we shall discuss a possible resolution of this paradox which is based on (a generalized version of) the hoop conjecture.” https://lnkd.in/d3sfhP6 View in LinkedIn
