Wormhole Renormalization: The gravitational path integral, holography, and a gauge group for topology change
Elliott Gesteau, Matilde Marcolli, Jacob McNamara
We study the Factorization Paradox from the bottom up by adapting methods from perturbative renormalization. Just as quantum field theories are plagued with loop divergences that n…

On the Fate of Stringy Non-Invertible Symmetries
Jonathan J. Heckman, Jacob McNamara, Miguel Montero +3
Non-invertible symmetries in quantum field theory (QFT) generalize the familiar product rule of groups to a more general fusion rule. In many cases, gauged versions of these symmet…
