Boltzmann Entropy, the Holographic Bound and Newtonian Cosmology

[EN] The holographic principle sets an upper bound on the total (Boltzmann) entropy content of the Universe at around 10123kB (kB being Boltzmann¿s constant). In this work we point out the existence of a remarkable duality between nonrelativistic quantum mechanics on the one hand, and Newtonian cosm...
