Long-range wormhole teleportation

Joseph D. Lykken, Daniel Jafferis, Alexander Zlokapa +4

We extend the protocol of Gao and Jafferis arXiv:1911.07416 to allow wormhole teleportation between two entangled copies of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model communicating only thr…

The Fate of Information Localizability and Holography in Quantum Gravity

Hao Geng, Daniel Jafferis, Pushkal Shrivastava +1

The AdS/CFT correspondence states an equivalence between a quantum gravitational theory in a (d+1)-dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime (AdS) and a d-dimensional conformal…

A Duality Appetizer

Daniel Jafferis, Xi Yin

We propose that the three-dimensional N=2 SU(2) Chern-Simons theory at level 1 coupled to an adjoint chiral multiplet with no superpotential is equivalent to the free field theory…

Massive type IIA string theory cannot be strongly coupled

Ofer Aharony, Daniel Jafferis, Alessandro Tomasiello +1

Understanding the strong coupling limit of massive type IIA string theory is a longstanding problem. We argue that perhaps this problem does not exist; namely, there may be no stro…

The Factorization Problem in Jackiw-Teitelboim Gravity

Daniel Harlow, Daniel Jafferis

In this note we study the dimensional Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity in Lorentzian signature, explicitly constructing the gauge-invariant classical phase space and the quantum Hil…

Conformal Bootstrap At Large Charge

Daniel Jafferis, Baur Mukhametzhanov, Alexander Zhiboedov

We consider unitary CFTs with continuous global symmetries in . We consider a state created by the lightest operator of large charge and analyze the correlator of tw…

On Upper Bounds in Dimension Gaps of CFT's

Tristan C. Collins, Daniel Jafferis, Cumrun Vafa +2

We consider CFT's arising from branes probing singularities of internal manifolds. We focus on holographic models with internal space including arbtirary Sasaki-Einstein manifolds…

A DK Phase Transition in q-Deformed Yang-Mills on S^2 and Topological Strings

Daniel Jafferis, Joseph Marsano

We demonstate the existence of a large phase transition with respect to the 't Hooft coupling in q-deformed Yang-Mills theory on . The strong coupling phase is characteriz…

Crystals and intersecting branes

Daniel Jafferis

We show that the index of BPS bound states of D4, D2 and D0 branes in IIA theory compactified on a toric Calabi Yau are encoded in the combinatoric counting of restricted three dim…

Comment on "Comment on "Traversable wormhole dynamics on a quantum processor" "

Daniel Jafferis, Alexander Zlokapa, Joseph D. Lykken +5

We observe that the comment of [1, arXiv:2302.07897] is consistent with [2] on key points: i) the microscopic mechanism of the experimentally observed teleportation is size winding…
