Wormhole and Entanglement (Non-)Detection in the ER=EPR Correspondence
Ning Bao, Jason Pollack, Grant N. Remmen
The recently proposed ER=EPR correspondence postulates the existence of wormholes (Einstein-Rosen bridges) between entangled states (such as EPR pairs). Entanglement is famously kn…
The Bayesian Second Law of Thermodynamics
Anthony Bartolotta, Sean M. Carroll, Stefan Leichenauer +1
We derive a generalization of the Second Law of Thermodynamics that uses Bayesian updates to explicitly incorporate the effects of a measurement of a system at some point in its ev…
Splitting Spacetime and Cloning Qubits: Linking No-Go Theorems across the ER=EPR Duality
Ning Bao, Jason Pollack, Grant N. Remmen
We analyze the no-cloning theorem in quantum mechanics through the lens of the proposed ER=EPR (Einstein-Rosen = Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen) duality between entanglement and wormholes…
Why Boltzmann Brains Don't Fluctuate Into Existence From the De Sitter Vacuum
Kimberly K. Boddy, Sean M. Carroll, Jason Pollack
Many modern cosmological scenarios feature large volumes of spacetime in a de Sitter vacuum phase. Such models are said to be faced with a "Boltzmann Brain problem" - the overwhelm…
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…
