Gravitational Corner Conditions in Holography
Gary T. Horowitz, Diandian Wang
Contrary to popular belief, asymptotically anti-de Sitter solutions of gravitational theories cannot be obtained by taking initial data (satisfying the constraints) on a spacelike…
Creating a Traversable Wormhole
Gary T. Horowitz, Don Marolf, Jorge E. Santos +1
We argue that one can nucleate a traversable wormhole via a nonperturbative process in quantum gravity. To support this, we construct spacetimes in which there are instantons givin…
A Holographic Argument for the Penrose Inequality in AdS
Netta Engelhardt, Gary T. Horowitz
We give a holographic argument in favor of the AdS Penrose inequality, which conjectures a lower bound on the total mass in terms of the area of apparent horizons. This inequality…
Further evidence for the weak gravity -- cosmic censorship connection
Gary T. Horowitz, Jorge E. Santos
We have recently shown that a class of counterexamples to (weak) cosmic censorship in anti-de Sitter spacetime is removed if the weak gravity conjecture holds. Surprisingly, the mi…
