Microcanonical Action and the Entropy of Hawking Radiation

Juan F. Pedraza, Andrew Svesko, Watse Sybesma +1

The island formula -- an extremization prescription for generalized entropy -- is known to result in a unitary Page curve for the entropy of Hawking radiation. This semi-classical…

Sources in the Weyl double copy

Damien A. Easson, Tucker Manton, Andrew Svesko

The Weyl double copy relates exact solutions in general relativity to exact solutions in gauge theory, formulated in the spinorial language. To date, the Weyl double copy is unders…

Semi-classical thermodynamics of quantum extremal surfaces in Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity

Juan F. Pedraza, Andrew Svesko, Watse Sybesma +1

Quantum extremal surfaces (QES), codimension-2 spacelike regions which extremize the generalized entropy of a gravity-matter system, play a key role in the study of the black hole…

Sewing spacetime with Lorentzian threads: complexity and the emergence of time in quantum gravity

Juan F. Pedraza, Andrea Russo, Andrew Svesko +1

Holographic entanglement entropy was recently recast in terms of Riemannian flows or 'bit threads'. We consider the Lorentzian analog to reformulate the 'complexity=volume' conject…

Lorentzian threads as 'gatelines' and holographic complexity

Juan F. Pedraza, Andrea Russo, Andrew Svesko +1

The continuous min flow-max cut principle is used to reformulate the 'complexity=volume' conjecture using Lorentzian flows -- divergenceless norm-bounded timelike vector fields who…
