Quantum Maximin Surfaces

Chris Akers, Netta Engelhardt, Geoff Penington +1

We formulate a quantum generalization of maximin surfaces and show that a quantum maximin surface is identical to the minimal quantum extremal surface, introduced in the EW prescri…

Simple holographic models of black hole evaporation

Chris Akers, Netta Engelhardt, Daniel Harlow

Several recent papers have shown a close relationship between entanglement wedge reconstruction and the unitarity of black hole evaporation in AdS/CFT. The analysis of these papers…

Surface Theory: the Classical, the Quantum, and the Holographic

Netta Engelhardt, Sebastian Fischetti

Motivated by the power of subregion/subregion duality for constraining the bulk geometry in gauge/gravity duality, we pursue a comprehensive and systematic approach to the behavior…

The entropy of bulk quantum fields and the entanglement wedge of an evaporating black hole

Ahmed Almheiri, Netta Engelhardt, Donald Marolf +1

Bulk quantum fields are often said to contribute to the generalized entropy only at . Nonetheless, in the context of evaporating black hol…

A Holographic Argument for the Penrose Inequality in AdS

Netta Engelhardt, Gary T. Horowitz

We give a holographic argument in favor of the AdS Penrose inequality, which conjectures a lower bound on the total mass in terms of the area of apparent horizons. This inequality…
