Checking the Schwinger-Dyson equation in the purely open matrix-tensor model
Daniel L. Jafferis, Liza Rozenberg, Diandian Wang +1
We test the proposed matrix-tensor description of three-dimensional gravity using a Schwinger-Dyson relation in its purely open sector. We enumerate and classify the topological co…

Monitoring a de Sitter universe through an anti-de Sitter window
Sarah Hoback, Daniel L. Jafferis, Zixia Wei
We propose that AdS gravity coupled to dS end-of-the-world branes is dual to a unitary holographic CFT with non-unitary conformal boundary conditions. These boundary co…

The many facets of a hyperbolic tetrahedron: open and closed triangulations of 3d gravity
Daniel L. Jafferis, Diandian Wang
We study a model of 3d gravity relevant to the open sector of a CFT ensemble. The quantum theory is the open Virasoro TQFT, obtained by restricting the full open-closed Virasoro TQ…
