A bstract Quantum error correction has given us a natural language for the emergence of
spacetime, but the black hole interior poses a challenge for this framework: at late times the …

We consider toy models of holography arising from 3d Chern-Simons theory. In this context
a duality to an ensemble average over 2d CFTs has been recently proposed. We put forward …

Reproducing the integer count of black hole micro-states from the gravitational path integral
is an important problem in quantum gravity. In this paper, we show that, by using …

We study the gravitational description of extremal supersymmetric black holes. We point out
that the $ AdS_2 $ near horizon geometry can be used to compute interesting observables …

A bstract As has been known since the 90s, there is an integrable structure underlying two-
dimensional gravity theories. Recently, two-dimensional gravity theories have regained an …

A bstract We provide a precise relation between an ensemble of Narain conformal field
theories (CFTs) with central charge c= n, and a sum of (U (1)× U (1)) n Chern-Simons …

A bstract We present a new holographic duality between q-Schwarzian quantum mechanics
and Liouville gravity. The q-Schwarzian is a one parameter deformation of the Schwarzian …

Recent works by Chandrasekaran, Penington, and Witten have shown in various special
contexts that the quantum-corrected Ryu-Takayanagi (RT) entropy (or its covariant Hubeny …

We study correlation functions for extremal supersymmetric black holes. It is necessary to
take into account the strongly coupled nature of the boundary supergraviton mode. We …

A bstract We propose a generalization of the Saad-Shenker-Stanford duality relating matrix
models and JT gravity to the case in which the bulk includes higher spin fields. Using a PSL …
