A bstract We study the fundamentals of quantum field theory on a rigid de Sitter space. We show that the perturbative expansion of late-time correlation functions to all orders can be …
A bstract A two-dimensional CFT dual to a semiclassical theory of gravity in three dimensions must have a large central charge c and a sparse low energy spectrum. This …
A bstract Quantum extremal islands reproduce the unitary Page curve of an evaporating black hole. This has been derived by including replica wormholes in the gravitational path …
A bstract Understanding the fate of semi-classical black hole solutions at very late times is one of the most important open questions in quantum gravity. In this paper, we provide a …
A bstract We find models of two dimensional gravity that resolve the factorization puzzle and have a discrete spectrum, whilst retaining a semiclassical description. A novelty of these …
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 large class of two-dimensional dilaton-gravity theories in asymptotically AdS 2 spacetimes are holographically dual to a matrix integral, interpreted as an ensemble average over …

A bstract We consider spacetime initiated by a finite-sized initial boundary as a generalization of the Hartle-Hawking no-boundary state. We study entanglement entropy of …
JT gravity has a first-order formulation as a two-dimensional BF theory, which can be viewed as the dimensional reduction of the Chern-Simons description of $3 d $ gravity. We consider …
