Gauge It or Break It: Lectures on Global Symmetries and the Cobordism Conjecture
Matilda Delgado, Corinne Englert, Guillermo Mera Álvarez +1
These lecture notes introduce the No Global Symmetries Conjecture in the context of the Swampland Program, with particular emphasis on the Cobordism Conjecture. We begin with a rev…
AdS Black Holes Are Short-Lived inside the Spectral Form Factor
José L. F. Barbón, Eduardo Velasco-Aja
We analyze the contribution of AdS black hole saddles to the spectral form factor of -dimensional CFTs with a gravity dual. At high temperatures, the analytically continued grav…
A Note on Black Hole Entropy and Wormhole Instabilities
J. L. F. Barbon, E. Velasco-Aja
We discuss recent approaches to the computation of black hole entropies through semiclassical estimates of appropriate state overlaps, saturated by Euclidean wormhole configuration…
The one-loop unimodular graviton propagator in any dimension
Jesus Anero, Carmelo P. Martin, Eduardo Velasco-Aja
For unimodular gravity, we work out, by using dimensional regularization, the complete one-loop correction to the graviton propagator in any space-time dimension. The computation i…
The quantum dynamics of Lagrange multipliers
Enrique Álvarez, Jesús Anero, Carmelo P. Martin +1
When implementing a non-linear constraint in quantum field theory by means of a Lagrange multiplier, , it is often the case that quantum dynamics induce quadratic and even hi…
Variations on the Goroff-Sagnotti operator
Enrique Álvarez, Jesus Anero, Eduardo Velasco-Aja
The effect of modifying General Relativity with the addition of some higher dimensional operators, generalizations of the Goroff-Sagnotti operator, is discussed. We determine in pa…
A Primer on Unimodular Gravity
Enrique Álvarez, Eduardo Velasco-Aja
This chapter provides an introduction to Unimodular Gravity both at the classical and quantum level, discussing the rôle it might play in the partial solution of the Cosmological C…
Quantum corrections to Einstein's equations
Eduardo Velasco-Aja, Jesus Anero
In this master thesis, the Frobenius power series method is used to find spherically symmetric and static vacuum solutions to quadratic and cubic gravitational actions, representin…
The fate of horizons under quantum corrections
Enrique Álvarez, Jesús Anero, Eduardo Velasco-Aja
We have studied a lagrangian in which the Einstein-Hilbert term is deformed by the Weyl cube operator, which is the lowest-dimension operator that is non-vanishing on shell and app…
