Abstract:
The quantum creation probability and entropy of a 2-codimensional braneworld are calculated in the framework of no-boundary universe. The entropy can take an arbitrarily large value as the brane tensions increase, in violation of the conjectured N-bound in quantum gravity, even for a 4-dimensional ordinary universe.
