Abstract

A new entropy bound, tighter than the standard holographic bound due to Bekenstein, is derived for space-times with nonrotating isolated horizons from the quantum geometry approach, in which the horizon is described by the boundary degrees of freedom of a three dimensional Chern-Simons theory.
