Lessons from the information paradox

S Raju - Physics Reports, 2022 - Elsevier
We review recent progress on the information paradox. We explain why exponentially small
correlations in the radiation emitted by a black hole are sufficient to resolve the original …

Quantum computational complexity from quantum information to black holes and back

S Chapman, G Policastro - The European Physical Journal C, 2022 - Springer
Quantum computational complexity estimates the difficulty of constructing quantum states
from elementary operations, a problem of prime importance for quantum computation …

First Sagittarius A* event horizon telescope results. VI. Testing the black hole metric

K Akiyama, A Alberdi, W Alef, JC Algaba… - The Astrophysical …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Astrophysical black holes are expected to be described by the Kerr metric. This is the only
stationary, vacuum, axisymmetric metric, without electromagnetic charge, that satisfies …

Observational evidence for cosmological coupling of black holes and its implications for an astrophysical source of dark energy

D Farrah, KS Croker, M Zevin, G Tarlé… - The Astrophysical …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
Observations have found black holes spanning 10 orders of magnitude in mass across most
of cosmic history. The Kerr black hole solution is, however, provisional as its behavior at …

Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
Astrophysical black holes are expected to be described by the Kerr metric. This is the only

The entropy of bulk quantum fields and the entanglement wedge of an evaporating black hole

A Almheiri, N Engelhardt, D Marolf… - Journal of High Energy …, 2019 - Springer
A bstract Bulk quantum fields are often said to contribute to the generalized entropy\(\frac
{A}{4 {G} _N}+{S} _ {\mathrm {bulk}}\) only at O (1). Nonetheless, in the context of …

Entanglement wedge reconstruction and the information paradox

G Penington - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 - Springer
A bstract When absorbing boundary conditions are used to evaporate a black hole in
AdS/CFT, we show that there is a phase transition in the location of the quantum Ryu …

Transcending the ensemble: baby universes, spacetime wormholes, and the order and disorder of black hole information

D Marolf, H Maxfield - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 - Springer
A bstract In the 1980's, work by Coleman and by Giddings and Strominger linked the physics
of spacetime wormholes to 'baby universes' and an ensemble of theories. We revisit such …

Quantum extremal islands made easy. Part II. Black holes on the brane

HZ Chen, RC Myers, D Neuenfeld, IA Reyes… - Journal of High Energy …, 2020 - Springer
A bstract We discuss holographic models of extremal and non-extremal black holes in
contact with a bath in d dimensions, based on a brane world model introduced in [1]. The …

Symmetries in quantum field theory and quantum gravity

D Harlow, H Ooguri - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2021 - Springer
In this paper we use the AdS/CFT correspondence to refine and then establish a set of old
conjectures about symmetries in quantum gravity. We first show that any global symmetry …
