Constitutional Classifiers: Defending against Universal Jailbreaks across Thousands of Hours of Red Teaming

Mrinank Sharma, Meg Tong, Jesse Mu +40

Large language models (LLMs) are vulnerable to universal jailbreaks-prompting strategies that systematically bypass model safeguards and enable users to carry out harmful processes…

Semi-classical dilaton gravity and the very blunt defect expansion

Jorrit Kruthoff, Adam Levine

We explore dilaton gravity with general dilaton potentials in the semi-classical limit viewed both as a gas of blunt defects and also as a semi-classical theory in its own right. W…

Carrying over algorithm in transformers

Jorrit Kruthoff

Addition is perhaps one of the simplest arithmetic tasks one can think of and is usually performed using the carrying over algorithm. This algorithm consists of two tasks: adding d…

The power of Lorentzian wormholes

Andreas Blommaert, Jorrit Kruthoff, Shunyu Yao

As shown by Louko and Sorkin in 1995, topology change in Lorentzian signature involves spacetimes with singular points, which they called crotches. We modify their construction to…

S-duality in -deformed CFT

Nathan Benjamin, Scott Collier, Jorrit Kruthoff +2

deformed conformal field theories can be reformulated as worldsheet theories of non-critical strings. We use this correspondence to compute and study the defo…

An integrable road to a perturbative plateau

Andreas Blommaert, Jorrit Kruthoff, Shunyu Yao

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 enormous…

Higher spin JT gravity and a matrix model dual

Jorrit Kruthoff

We propose a generalization of the Saad-Shenker-Stanford duality relating matrix models and JT gravity to the case in which the bulk includes higher spin fields. Using a $\textsf{P…

Alpha states demystified: Towards microscopic models of AdS holography

Andreas Blommaert, Luca V. Iliesiu, Jorrit Kruthoff

We continue our study of factorizing theories of dilaton gravity, characterized by a universal bilocal interaction. All such factorizing theories can be shown to have discrete spec…

Gravity factorized

Andreas Blommaert, Luca V. Iliesiu, Jorrit Kruthoff

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 model…

Gravity without averaging

Andreas Blommaert, Jorrit Kruthoff

We present a gravitational theory that interpolates between JT gravity, and a gravity theory with a fixed boundary Hamiltonian. For this, we consider a matrix integral with the ins…

Free fermion entanglement with a semitransparent interface: the effect of graybody factors on entanglement islands

Jorrit Kruthoff, Raghu Mahajan, Chitraang Murdia

We study the entanglement entropy of free fermions in 2d in the presence of a partially transmitting interface that splits Minkowski space into two half-spaces. We focus on the cas…

Building Tensor Networks for Holographic States

Pawel Caputa, Jorrit Kruthoff, Onkar Parrikar

We discuss a one-parameter family of states in two-dimensional holographic conformal field theories which are constructed via the Euclidean path integral of an effective theory on…

Classifying boundary conditions in JT gravity: from energy-branes to -branes

Akash Goel, Luca V. Iliesiu, Jorrit Kruthoff +1

We classify the possible boundary conditions in JT gravity and discuss their exact quantization. Each boundary condition that we study will reveal new features in JT gravity relate…

Diving into a holographic superconductor

Sean A. Hartnoll, Gary T. Horowitz, Jorrit Kruthoff +1

Charged black holes in anti-de Sitter space become unstable to forming charged scalar hair at low temperatures . This phenomenon is a holographic realization of sup…

Gravitational duals to the grand canonical ensemble abhor Cauchy horizons

Sean A. Hartnoll, Gary T. Horowitz, Jorrit Kruthoff +1

The gravitational dual to the grand canonical ensemble of a large holographic theory is a charged black hole. These spacetimes -- for example Reissner-Nordström-AdS -- can have…

Density matrices in quantum gravity

Tarek Anous, Jorrit Kruthoff, Raghu Mahajan

We study density matrices in quantum gravity, focusing on topology change. We argue that the inclusion of bra-ket wormholes in the gravity path integral is not a free choice, but i…

JT gravity at finite cutoff

Luca V. Iliesiu, Jorrit Kruthoff, Gustavo J. Turiaci +1

We compute the partition function of Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity at finite cutoff in two ways: (i) via an exact evaluation of the Wheeler-DeWitt wave-functional in radial q…

Holographic flows from CFT to the Kasner universe

Alexander Frenkel, Sean A. Hartnoll, Jorrit Kruthoff +1

The Schwarzschild singularity is known to be classically unstable. We demonstrate a simple holographic consequence of this fact, focusing on a perturbation that is uniform in bound…
