Title: Thermo field dynamics approach for entropy of spacetime
Abstract: A thermo field dynamics approach for calculating the entropy of a spacetime is suggested. It is exemplified through the Rindler spacetime, the Milne spacetime, the Boulware spacetime, and the Minkowski spacetime with a moving mirror that the entropy of a spacetime is equal to the entropy of a thermo quantum field with the same temperature of the spacetime we study. This in fact suggests an thermo field dynamics approach of calculating the entropy of a spacetime. In this approach, the entropy of a spacetime is an expectation value of the entropy operator on a thermo vacuum state. The thermo vacuum state is the vacuum state on the maximal manifold which is the maximal analytic extension of the spacetime we study.
