标题： The Channel Capacity of a Relativistic String

摘要： 我探讨了由于光的横向传播速度有限而在相对论信道中传输功率和信息时所面临的限制。 作为一个模型系统，我考虑了一根由基本弦构成的绳子，其中相对论不变性是内置的。 通过抖动这根弦的一端，功率和信息都可以传递到另一端。 我论证了尽管有无限多的功率和信息可能沿着弦传播，但存在一个可传递的最大值限制。 此外，我推测这两种类型的信道容量——功率和信息——会相互干扰，因此传输最大功率的唯一方法是不发送任何信息，反之亦然。 显示英文摘要

摘要： I explore the limitations on the capacity of a relativistic channel to transmit power and information that arise because of the finiteness of the transverse speed of light. As a model system, I consider a rope constructed from a fundamental string, for which relativistic invariance is built in. By wiggling one end of the string, both power and information may be transmitted to the other end. I argue that even though an unbounded amount of power and information may be traveling down the string, there is a bound on how much may be transmitted. Further, I conjecture that the two kinds of channel capacity -- power and information -- interfere with each other, so that the only way to transmit the maximum amount of power is to send no information, and vice versa.
