Description

In quantum gravity it expected that the Big Bang singularity is resolved and the
universe undergoes a bounce. We argue that matter-gravity entanglement entropy
rises rapidly during the bounce, declines, and then approaches a steady state value
higher than before the bounce. These observations suggest that matter-gravity en-
tanglement is a feature of the macroscopic universe that there is no second law of
entanglement entropy.
