Replica manifolds, pole skipping, and the butterfly effect
Wan Zhen Chua, Thomas Hartman, Wayne W. Weng
The black hole butterfly effect is a signal of quantum chaos in holographic theories that can be probed in different ways, including out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs), pole ski…

Computable Cross Norm in Tensor Networks and Holography
Alexey Milekhin, Pratik Rath, Wayne Weng
The Computable Cross Norm (CCNR) was recently discussed in Ref.~\cite{Yin:2022toc} as a measure of multipartite entanglement in a condensed matter context. In this short note, we p…

A single geometry from an all-genus expansion in quantum gravity
Sergio Hernández-Cuenca, Nico Valdes-Meller, Wayne Wei-en Weng
We report on an instance in quantum gravity where a topological expansion resums into an effective description on a single geometry. The original theory whose gravitational path in…
