The two-dimensional disordered sigma model

Martí Berenguer, Felix M. Haehl, Elisa Tabor

We introduce a two-dimensional nonlinear sigma model with random Gaussian -body interactions. The model combines the structure of a two-dimensional bosonic SYK-type quant…

A note on the quantization of angular momentum for black holes

Jon Goker, Luca V. Iliesiu, Elisa Tabor

We argue that the gravitational path integral for rotating black holes is periodic in the angular velocity, implying the quantization of angular momentum in arbitrary dimensions fo…

3D Gravity and Chaos in CFTs with Fermions

Jan Boruch, Elisa Tabor, Gustavo J. Turiaci

Pure 3d gravity in AdS is believed to admit a holographic description in terms of 2d CFT. We introduce a theory of fermionic 3d gravity where we sum over geometries equipped with s…

The algebraic structure of gravitational scrambling

Geoff Penington, Elisa Tabor

We introduce a new algebraic framework to describe gravitational scrambling, including the semiclassical limit of any out-of-time-order correlation function that is built out of op…

Discrete Max-Focusing

Raphael Bousso, Elisa Tabor

The Quantum Focusing Conjecture (QFC) lies at the foundation of holography and semiclassical gravity. The QFC implies the Bousso bound and the Quantum Null Energy Condition (QNEC).…

Simple Holography in General Spacetimes

Raphael Bousso, Elisa Tabor

The simple or "outermost" wedge in AdS is the portion of the entanglement wedge that can be reconstructed with sub-exponential effort from CFT data. Here we furnish a definition in…
