Deleted untrue statement; Renyi and Shannon entropy are still widely researched
Line 4: Line 4:     
Entropy is undeniable and yet creates perhaps insurmountable difficulties for many modern theories of physics.  For example, it renders time asymmetric, resulting in an [[arrow of time]] that is difficult to reconcile with the [[theory of relativity]].  Entropy casts doubt on whether physical laws or the speed of light are invariant and perpetual.

Perhaps because entropy confounds so much other contemporary theory in physics, there is very little theoretical work on entropy today.
