Looking for (and not finding) a bulk brane

Wyatt Reeves, Moshe Rozali, Petar Simidzija +3

When does a holographic CFT with a boundary added to it (a BCFT) also have a `good' holographic dual with a localized gravitating end-of-the-world brane? We argue that the answer t…

Holographic BCFTs and Communicating Black Holes

Hao Geng, Severin Lüst, Rashmish K. Mishra +1

We study the AdS/BCFT duality between two-dimensional conformal field theories with two boundaries and three-dimensional anti-de Sitter space with two Karch-Randall branes. We comp…

Quantum tasks require islands on the brane

Alex May, David Wakeham

In recent work, it was argued that quantum computations with inputs and outputs distributed in spacetime, or quantum tasks, impose constraints on entanglement in holographic theori…

Microstate Distinguishability, Quantum Complexity, and the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis

Ning Bao, Jason Pollack, David Wakeham +1

In this work, we use quantum complexity theory to quantify the difficulty of distinguishing eigenstates obeying the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis (ETH). After identifying si…

BCFT entanglement entropy at large central charge and the black hole interior

James Sully, Mark Van Raamsdonk, David Wakeham

In this note, we consider entanglement and Renyi entropies for spatial subsystems of a boundary conformal field theory (BCFT) or of a CFT in a state constructed using a Euclidean B…

Eigenstate Thermalization and Disorder Averaging in Gravity

Jason Pollack, Moshe Rozali, James Sully +1

Naively, a resolution of the black hole information paradox appears to involve microscopic details of a theory of quantum gravity. However, recent work has argued that a unitary Pa…
