Quantum Fluctuations of the Black Hole Horizon
Ben Freivogel, Antony Speranza, Erik Verlinde
Classical black holes have sharply defined event horizons, but quantum mechanically the horizon acquires a quantum uncertainty, called the `quantum width' by Marolf. We propose a d…
An Operator Algebraic Approach To Black Hole Information
Jeremy van der Heijden, Erik Verlinde
We present an operator algebraic perspective on the black hole information problem. For a black hole after Page time that is entangled with the early radiation we formulate a versi…
Modular Fluctuations from Shockwave Geometries
Erik Verlinde, Kathryn M. Zurek
Modular fluctuations have previously been shown to obey an area law . Furthermore, modular fluctuations generate fluctuation…
Quantum chaos in 2D gravity
Alexander Altland, Boris Post, Julian Sonner +2
We present a quantitative and fully non-perturbative description of the ergodic phase of quantum chaos in the setting of two-dimensional gravity. To this end we describe the doubly…
A universe field theory for JT gravity
Boris Post, Jeremy van der Heijden, Erik Verlinde
We present a field theory description for the non-perturbative splitting and joining of baby universes in Euclidean Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity. We show how the gravitational pa…
Spacetime Fluctuations in AdS/CFT
Erik Verlinde, Kathryn M. Zurek
We compute fluctuations in the modular energy of the vacuum associated with a Rindler-wedge in AdS spacetime in the context of AdS/CFT. We discuss the possible effect of these ener…
