More quantum noise from wormholes
Douglas Stanford
For black hole evaporation to be unitary, the naive density matrix of Hawking radiation needs to be corrected with a sprinkling of pseudorandom "noise." Using wormholes, semiclassi…

Finite-cutoff JT gravity and self-avoiding loops
Douglas Stanford, Zhenbin Yang
We study quantum JT gravity at finite cutoff using a mapping to the statistical mechanics of a self-avoiding loop in hyperbolic space, with positive pressure and fixed length. The…

Many-Body Chaos in the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev Model
Bryce Kobrin, Zhenbin Yang, Gregory D. Kahanamoku-Meyer +4
Many-body chaos has emerged as a powerful framework for understanding thermalization in strongly interacting quantum systems. While recent analytic advances have sharpened our intu…
