Wormhole Traversability via Quantum Random Walks
Ning Bao, Vincent P. Su, Mykhaylo Usatyuk
In this work we seek to generalize the connection between traversable wormholes and quantum channels. We do this via a connection between traversable wormholes and graph geometries…
Entanglement entropy from SU(2) Chern-Simons theory and symmetric webs
Sungbong Chun, Ning Bao
A path integral on a link complement of a three-sphere fixes a vector (the "link state") in Chern-Simons theory. The link state can be written in a certain basis with the colored l…
Fast optimization algorithms and the cosmological constant
Ning Bao, Raphael Bousso, Stephen Jordan +1
Denef and Douglas have observed that in certain landscape models the problem of finding small values of the cosmological constant is a large instance of an NP-hard problem. The num…
The Hilbert Space of Quantum Gravity Is Locally Finite-Dimensional
Ning Bao, Sean M. Carroll, Ashmeet Singh
We argue in a model-independent way that the Hilbert space of quantum gravity is locally finite-dimensional. In other words, the density operator describing the state corresponding…
Entanglement Conservation, ER=EPR, and a New Classical Area Theorem for Wormholes
Grant N. Remmen, Ning Bao, Jason Pollack
We consider the question of entanglement conservation in the context of the ER=EPR correspondence equating quantum entanglement with wormholes. In quantum mechanics, the entangleme…
Consistency Conditions for an AdS/MERA Correspondence
Ning Bao, ChunJun Cao, Sean M. Carroll +4
The Multi-scale Entanglement Renormalization Ansatz (MERA) is a tensor network that provides an efficient way of variationally estimating the ground state of a critical quantum sys…
