Signatures of Bulk Topology from the 't Hooft Worldsheet
Jackson R. Fliss, Alexander Frenkel
We study entanglement entropy in a certain ansatz of matrix quantum mechanics (MQM) wavefunctions which behave as generating functionals for a planar 't Hooft expansion. We argue t…
What's the Matter with 3D Gravity?
Robert Bourne, Jackson R. Fliss, Bob Knighton
We revisit the problem of minimally coupling matter to Einstein gravity in three dimensions with negative cosmological constant. By working in the worldline formalism, we construct…
Fortuity and Complexity in a Simple Quark Model
Jackson R. Fliss, Vishnu Jejjala, Onkar Parrikar
We observe and elaborate on a structural similarity between the categorization of monotone and fortuitous BPS operators in supersymmetric theories and gauge invariant quark operato…
Modave lectures on energy conditions in quantum field theory and semi-classical gravity
Jackson R. Fliss
We review well known classical energy conditions and their implications for gravitational solutions, including the celebrated Hawking and Penrose singularity theorems. We then cons…
