Solvable models of quantum black holes: a review on Jackiw–Teitelboim gravity

TG Mertens, GJ Turiaci - Living Reviews in Relativity, 2023 - Springer
We review recent developments in Jackiw–Teitelboim gravity. This is a simple solvable
model of quantum gravity in two dimensions (that arises eg from the s-wave sector of higher …

Analyticity and unitarity for cosmological correlators

L Di Pietro, V Gorbenko, S Komatsu - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 - Springer
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 …

Semiclassical 3D gravity as an average of large-c CFTs

J Chandra, S Collier, T Hartman, A Maloney - Journal of High Energy …, 2022 - Springer
A bstract A two-dimensional CFT dual to a semiclassical theory of gravity in three

Replica wormholes for an evaporating 2D black hole

K Goto, T Hartman, A Tajdini - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 - Springer
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 …

The volume of the black hole interior at late times

LV Iliesiu, M Mezei, G Sárosi - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 - Springer
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 …

Gravity factorized

A Blommaert, LV Iliesiu, J Kruthoff - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 - Springer
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 …

An integrable road to a perturbative plateau

A Blommaert, J Kruthoff, S Yao - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer
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 …

2D dilaton-gravity, deformations of the minimal string, and matrix models

GJ Turiaci, M Usatyuk, WW Weng - Classical and Quantum …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
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 …

Island for gravitationally prepared state and pseudo entanglement wedge

M Miyaji - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 - Springer
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 …

in JT Gravity and BF Gauge Theory

S Ebert, C Ferko, HY Sun, Z Sun - SciPost Physics, 2022 - scipost.org
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 …
