This was stated by physicists from India, Austria and Japan, the calculations which do not exclude such a possibility.

According to the holographic principle, for the mathematical description of the universe is enough information provided on its outer edge. In 1993, the Dutch physicist Gerard't Hooft suggested that this principle, as applied to the string theory it is embodied in the idea of ​​the so-called AdS / CFT-compliance.

AdS / CFT-compliance means that the quantum field theory in space-time anti-de Sitter space equivalent to conformal field theory. That is, this means that if we know the properties of a theory, we can get information about the other. And associate with the quantum theory of gravity - in one of the most fundamental concepts of string theory.

Meanwhile, the space of anti-de Sitter space has negative curvature, while the curvature of the universe is close to zero. However, calculations show researchers said analogue matching can occur for a flat universe.

"If quantum gravity in a flat space allows holographic description in the framework of the standard quantum theory, there should be a physicist, calculated in both theories and the results of such calculations should be consistent" - Daniel Gryummiler, one of the authors of the study

According to him, this correspondence can be checked for example, quantum entanglement, which is manifested in the case where the properties of the objects that were originally linked, are correlated even if there is a distance between them. The fact that the change in properties of one object in the system, in case of separation from other influences on the properties of the rest.

A quantitative measure of describing the confusion is the entropy. And in this case, as the authors' calculations, it takes the same value in the plane of quantum gravity in a two-dimensional quantum field theory.

"This confirms our assumption that the holographic principle can be implemented in a flat space, which is an indication that the match can take place in our universe," - Daniel Gryummiler, one of the authors of the study
