Abstract：

[Objective]This paper studies the relationship between information volume and mass, energy, and time, through analyses of definition and properties of information volume based on the information sextuple model, in order to provide a theoretical reference for research and applications of information science, especially quantum information.

[Methods] Based on the information sextuple model in the Objective Information Theory, along with the theories of quantum information, we studied the information volume effect under a variety of combinatorial conditions, and strictly derived the relationship between information and matter, energy and, time through mathematical axiomatic methods.

[Results] We proved that the information capacity based on the information entropy is a special case of the definition of information volume in the Objective Information Theory. Furthermore, we estimated the information volumne of a single quantum carrier, derived the relationship formula between information volume and mass, energy and, time. Based on this, we estimated and comparatively analyzed the information volume existed in the universe.

[Limitations] These theoretical results are in need of validation with empirical physical studies and applications of complex information systems science

[Conclusions] The connotation of information volume of the Objective Information Theory can profoundly and accurately, to a certain extent, reveal the relationship among the three basic elements of the objective world—that is, matter, energy and information, demonstrating a good universal significance and application prospect.
