Holographic Principle

>>8957994
Disgustingly oversimplified: because maximum information is carried by a constant density per area, not volume.

So while the information is stored on the surface between falling in and being dispersed as radiation, is the object represented in any particular space/time?

Bump. I'd love a rundown by someone who's in on this stuff.

>So... Holographic principle is based on the idea that information about an object is retained after disintegration on/in a black hole?
Why would you want to talk about a subject you would not understand anything about?
Open the book.
Do the math.

Because I was watching some World Science Festival videos on YouTube about it, which brush over it in layman's terms.

Is it too exclusive a club? Do you just not understand it yourself? No need to be hostile to inquiry.

What you ask doesn't make sense. What do you mean by "represented"?
If you want to know more about this topic, you should really get your math together and read the string theory textbook. I hate giving overly simplified explanations of it. It's not simple, these layman explanations never give you the whole picture. I told you how holographic principle was discovered, that's pretty much the only thing i can do, given i'm still an undergrad who just finished bosonic, and is just starting heterotic string.
You should really, really get your basics down first. Your analogy of setting paper on fire shows terrible misunderstanding of entropy.
