Spinning States and Unitarity in 3D Gravity
Ziyi Li
We revisit the proposal to cure the negative density of states in the three-dimensional gravitational path integral by adding spinning states whose spin scales with the central cha…

Spinning Particle Geometries in AdS/CFT
Ziyi Li
We study spinning particle/defect geometries in the context of AdS/CFT. These solutions lie below the BTZ threshold, and can be obtained from identifications of AdS. We…

Aspects of Holography in Conical
David Berenstein, David Grabovsky, Ziyi Li
We study the Feynman propagator of free scalar fields in with a conical defect. The propagator is built by solving the bulk equation of motion, summing over the modes of th…
