Fine Structure of Jackiw-Teitelboim Quantum Gravity
Andreas Blommaert, Thomas G. Mertens, Henri Verschelde
We investigate structural aspects of JT gravity through its BF description. In particular, we provide evidence that JT gravity should be thought of as (a coset of) the noncompact s…
The Schwarzian Theory - A Wilson Line Perspective
Andreas Blommaert, Thomas G. Mertens, Henri Verschelde
We provide a holographic perspective on correlation functions in Schwarzian quantum mechanics, as boundary-anchored Wilson line correlators in Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity. We first s…
Edge Dynamics from the Path Integral: Maxwell and Yang-Mills
Andreas Blommaert, Thomas G. Mertens, Henri Verschelde
We derive an action describing edge dynamics on interfaces for gauge theories (Maxwell and Yang-Mills) using the path integral. The canonical structure of the edge theory is deduce…
