interacting massive scalar quantum field theories in d-dimensions at finite temperature. We …

A proposal for 3d quantum gravity and its bulk factorization

TG Mertens, J Simón, G Wong - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer
A bstract Recent progress in AdS/CFT has provided a good understanding of how the bulk

Semiclassical geometry in double-scaled SYK

A Goel, V Narovlansky, H Verlinde - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer

Algebras and states in JT gravity

G Penington, E Witten - arXiv preprint arXiv:2301.07257, 2023 - arxiv.org
