Black holes and cryptocurrencies

Alexey Milekhin

It has been proposed in the literature that the volume of Einstein-Rosen bridge is equal to complexity of state preparation ("Complexity=Volume" conjecture). Taking this statement…

Coupled Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev models without Schwartzian dominance

Alexey Milekhin

We argue that in certain class of coupled Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev(SYK) models the low energy physics at large N is governed by a non-local action rather than the Schwartzian action. We p…

Humanly traversable wormholes

Juan Maldacena, Alexey Milekhin

We point out that there can be humanly traversable wormhole solutions in some previously considered theories for physics beyond the Standard Model, namely the Randall-Sundrum model…

Spontaneous Breaking of Symmetry in Coupled Complex SYK Models

Igor R. Klebanov, Alexey Milekhin, Grigory Tarnopolsky +1

As shown in [1], two copies of the large Majorana SYK model can produce spontaneous breaking of a symmetry when they are coupled by appropriate quartic terms. In this pap…

Universal Constraints on Energy Flow and SYK Thermalization

Ahmed Almheiri, Alexey Milekhin, Brian Swingle

We study the dynamics of a quantum system in thermal equilibrium that is suddenly coupled to a bath at a different temperature, a situation inspired by a particular black hole evap…

SYK wormhole formation in real time

Juan Maldacena, Alexey Milekhin

We study the real time formation of the ground state of two coupled SYK models. This is a highly entangled state which is close to the thermofield double state and can be viewed as…
