JT de Sitter Gravity as a Model of Coleman-de Luccia Tunneling
Sidan A, Tom Banks
We interpret the Euclidean solution of JT de Sitter gravity as the Coleman-de Luccia instanton for the decay of the low-entropy horizon of its static patch solution into either a B…
The Hydrodynamic Approach to Quantum Gravity
T. Banks
Several papers from the mid to late 1990s suggest that Einstein's equations should be thought of as the hydrodynamic equations of a special class of quantum systems. A classical so…
Note on 't Hooft's Shock Wave Commutators From Near Horizon Conformal Field Theory
T. Banks
We construct a finite model of 't Hooft's shock wave commutation relations from the ansatz\cite{Carlip}\cite{Solodukhin}\cite{BZ} that the quantum degrees of freedom in a causal di…
The holographic space-time model of inflation and its predictions for the CMB primordial spectra
Sidan A, Tom Banks
In 1998 Carlip and Solodukhin independently conjectured the equality between fluctuations in the modular Hamiltonian of black holes and its expectation value. Banks and Zurek's 202…
