This article consists of a very short introduction to classical and quantum information theory. Basic properties of the classical Shannon entropy and the quantum von Neumann entropy are described, along with related concepts such as classical and quantum relative entropy, conditional entropy, and mutual information. A few more detailed topics are considered in the quantum case.

Gibbons-Hawking Entropy and BMN Strings
A proposed universal finite entropy bound for quantum gravity is introduced and linked to the Gibbons-Hawking entropy of our universe, with BMN strings suggested as an unresolved test.

Cosmological comoving behavior of the configurational entropy
The paper claims the configurational entropy of cosmic fluids scales as a^{-3} for radiation and a^{-3/2} for matter, but the radiation result conflicts with the scale invariance of a blackbody spectrum.

Digit anomalies in the hadronic mass spectrum, classical and quantum information entropies, and the dynamical QCD scale
The first digits of PDG hadron masses deviate strongly from Benford's law, and the paper reads the resulting Shannon-entropy deficit as a signature of Lambda_QCD.

A Fluctuation Theory of Topological Susceptibility
The claim that ChPT topological susceptibility fluctuations are always non-interacting relies on a determinant that the paper's own equations show to be nonzero, and the slab sub-volume analysis contains further algeb...
