Quantum Pressure Inequalities — •Jan Zschoche1,2 and Rainer Verch2 — 1MPI-MIS, Leipzig, Germany — 2Univ. Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany
It is known that pointwise energy inequalities are violated in quantum field theory. Such inequalities restrict the magnitude of pressure (also negative pressure) with respect to the energy density. We modify the known quantum energy inequalities, which provide state-independent lower bounds on space-time averages of the energy density, to obtain a priori bounds on space-time averages of pressure for quantum fields on curved space-time.
