holographic hypothesis
A hypothesis of quantum gravity postulating that it is possible to obtain information about the bulk of the system, such as a black hole, from the surface of that system. This principle was suggested as a general feature of quantum gravity in the mid-1990s and found to hold in superstring theory a few years later.
