Holographic Dual of PT Symmetric BCFT
Ryota Maeda, Nanami Nakamura, Tadashi Takayanagi
We present a holographic dual of a two dimensional conformal field theory with non-hermitian but Parity-Time (PT) symmetric boundary conditions, by applying the AdS/BCFT duality an…

Traversable AdS Wormhole via Non-local Double Trace or Janus Deformation
Taishi Kawamoto, Ryota Maeda, Nanami Nakamura +1
We study (i) Janus deformations and (ii) non-local double trace deformations of a pair of CFTs, as two different ways to construct CFT duals of traversable AdS wormholes. First, we…

Non-hermitian Density Matrices from Time-like Entanglement and Wormholes
Jonathan Harper, Taishi Kawamoto, Ryota Maeda +2
We extensively explore the connections between time-like entanglement and non-hermitian density matrices in quantum many-body systems. We classify setups where we encounter non-her…
