Quantum gravity around ultracold black holes from DSSYK

Francesca Mariani, Thomas G. Mertens, Jacopo Papalini +1

We propose a quantum description of the ultracold Reissner-Nordström de Sitter black hole via a specific flat space limit of the double-scaled SYK model. Fluctuations in this regim…

Quantum JT Gravity in a box as a Pöschl-Teller Scattering Problem

Luca Griguolo, Jacopo Papalini, Lorenzo Russo +2

We present a canonical quantization of Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity with finite Dirichlet boundary conditions, using the geodesic length between the two boundaries and its conjugate m…

A new perspective on dilaton gravity at finite cutoff

Luca Griguolo, Jacopo Papalini, Lorenzo Russo +1

The formulation of two-dimensional quantum gravity at finite cutoff remains an open problem. We revisit this question in JT gravity from two perspectives: the closed-channel bulk p…

De Sitter holographic complexity from Krylov complexity in DSSYK

Michal P. Heller, Fabio Ori, Jacopo Papalini +2

We utilize the recent connection between the high energy limit of the double-scaled SYK model and two-dimensional de Sitter solutions of sine dilaton gravity to identify the length…

Probing the singularity at the holographic screen via -holography

Andreas Belaey, Thomas G. Mertens, Jacopo Papalini

We study the emergence of -deformed spacetime in a lower-dimensional gravitational system whose asymptotic region geometrizes the global symmetry of a -deformed CFT. More pre…

Wormholes, branes and finite matrices in sine dilaton gravity

Andreas Blommaert, Adam Levine, Thomas G. Mertens +2

We compute the double trumpet in sine dilaton gravity via WdW quantization. The wormhole size is discretized. The wormhole amplitude matches the spectral correlation of a finite-cu…

Krylov spread complexity as holographic complexity beyond JT gravity

Michal P. Heller, Jacopo Papalini, Tim Schuhmann

One of the important open problems in quantum black hole physics is a dual interpretation of holographic complexity proposals. To date the only quantitative match is the equality b…

An entropic puzzle in periodic dilaton gravity and DSSYK

Andreas Blommaert, Adam Levine, Thomas G. Mertens +2

We study 2d dilaton gravity theories with a periodic potential, with special emphasis on sine dilaton gravity, which is holographically dual to double-scaled SYK. The periodicity o…

Sine-dilaton gravity vs double-scaled SYK: exploring one-loop quantum corrections

Leonardo Bossi, Luca Griguolo, Jacopo Papalini +2

We provide non-trivial checks of the recently proposed duality between double-scaled SYK and a 2d dilaton gravity model with sine potential, studying the path integral at one-loop…

The dilaton gravity hologram of double-scaled SYK

Andreas Blommaert, Thomas G. Mertens, Jacopo Papalini

We work out a precise holographic duality between sine dilaton gravity, and DSSYK. More precisely, canonical quantization of sine dilaton gravity reproduces q-Schwarzian quantum me…

Localization and resummation of unstable instantons in 2d Yang-Mills

Luca Griguolo, Rodolfo Panerai, Jacopo Papalini +2

We compute the exact all-orders perturbative expansion for the partition function of 2d Yang-Mills theory on closed surfaces around higher critical points. We demo…

Asymptotics of Weil-Petersson volumes and two-dimensional quantum gravities

Luca Griguolo, Jacopo Papalini, Lorenzo Russo +1

We propose a refined expression for the large genus asymptotics of the Weil-Petersson volumes of the moduli space of super-Riemann surfaces with an arbitrary number of boundaries.…

The resurgence of the plateau in supersymmetric Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity

Luca Griguolo, Jacopo Papalini, Lorenzo Russo +1

Significant progresses have been made recently in understanding the spectral form factor of Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity, particularly at late times where non-perturbative effects are…

Supersymmetric localization of (higher-spin) JT gravity: a bulk perspective

Luca Griguolo, Luigi Guerrini, Rodolfo Panerai +2

We study two-dimensional Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity on the disk topology by using a BF gauge theory in the presence of a boundary term. The system can be equivalently written in a s…

Luca Griguolo, Rodolfo Panerai, Jacopo Papalini +1

We study the large- dynamics of -deformed two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory at genus zero. The 1/-expansion of the free energy is obtained by exploiting the associa…
