Dyonic edge modes in Abelian gauge theory

Keito Shimizu, Sotaro Sugishita

We find new boundary conditions in four-dimensional Abelian gauge theory with general Chern--Simons boundary couplings. The boundary conditions allow dyonic edge modes and physical…

Revisiting boundary electromagnetic duality and edge modes

Keito Shimizu, Sotaro Sugishita

We revisit electric and magnetic surface charges and edge modes in four-dimensional Maxwell theory and QED on a spacetime with a finite spatial boundary. Using the S-wall, which im…

Bridging dS/CFT and Celestial Holography via Ward-Takahashi Identities

Hideo Furugori, Naoki Ogawa, Sotaro Sugishita +1

In 2507.17558, we provide a map from a scalar theory on -dimensional Minkowski spacetime to a scalar theory with a continuous mass spectrum on -dimensional de Sitter…

Celestial Holography meets dS/CFT

Hideo Furugori, Naoki Ogawa, Sotaro Sugishita +1

We provide a concrete link between celestial amplitudes and cosmological correlators. We first construct a map from quantum field theories (QFTs) in -dimensional Euclidean s…

Notes on Rindler wave packets in Minkowski spacetime

Shono Shibuya, Sotaro Sugishita

We consider wave packets of a massless scalar field that have well-localized Rindler energy, and examine how their energy appears to a Minkowski observer to study how the classical…

Asymptotic symmetry and confinement in three-dimensional QED

Keito Shimizu, Sotaro Sugishita

We investigate the asymptotic symmetries of quantum electrodynamics (QED) in three dimensions, demonstrating that their actions on asymptotic states are trivial under the assumptio…

Heat and work in black hole thermodynamics via holography

Tomohiro Shigemura, Keito Shimizu, Sotaro Sugishita +2

We propose a formulation of black hole thermodynamics that incorporates the notions of heat and work, based on the thermodynamics in quantum theory and the AdS/CFT correspondence.…

Bulk Reconstruction and Gauge Invariance

Sotaro Sugishita, Seiji Terashima

In this paper, we discuss the concept of bulk reconstruction, which involves mapping bulk operators into CFT operators to understand the emergence of spacetime and gravity. We argu…

Celestial two-point functions and rectified dictionary

Hideo Furugori, Naoki Ogawa, Sotaro Sugishita +1

A naive celestial dictionary causes massless two-point functions to take the delta-function forms in the celestial conformal field theory (CCFT). We rectify the dictionary, involvi…

Subregion Complementarity in AdS/CFT

Sotaro Sugishita, Seiji Terashima

We examine the bulk reconstruction in the AdS/CFT correspondence. We demonstrate that the subregion duality fails to hold, highlighting discrepancies between operators in causal we…

Dress code for infrared safe scattering in QED

Hayato Hirai, Sotaro Sugishita

We study the -matrix and inclusive cross-section for general dressed states in quantum electrodynamics. We obtain an infrared factorization formula of the -matrix elements fo…

Spectrum of quantum KdV hierarchy in the semiclassical limit

Anatoly Dymarsky, Ashish Kakkar, Kirill Pavlenko +1

We employ semiclassical quantization to calculate spectrum of quantum KdV charges in the limit of large central charge . Classically, KdV charges generate completely…

Rindler Bulk Reconstruction and Subregion Duality in AdS/CFT

Sotaro Sugishita, Seiji Terashima

In this paper, we study the AdS-Rindler reconstruction. The CFT operators naively given by the holographic dictionary for the AdS-Rindler reconstruction contain tachyonic modes, wh…

Target space entanglement in quantum mechanics of fermions at finite temperature

Temma Hanyuda, Soichiro Mori, Sotaro Sugishita

We consider the target space entanglement in quantum mechanics of non-interacting fermions at finite temperature. Unlike pure states investigated in arXiv:2105.13726, the (Rényi) e…

Target Space Entanglement in Quantum Mechanics of Fermions and Matrices

Sotaro Sugishita

Quantum entanglement is closely related to the structure of spacetime in quantum gravity. For quantum field theories or statistical models, we usually consider base space entanglem…

IR finite S-matrix by gauge invariant dressed states

Hayato Hirai, Sotaro Sugishita

Dressed states were proposed to define the infrared (IR) finite -matrix in QED or gravity. We show that the original Kulish-Faddeev dressed states are not enough to cure the IR…

KdV-charged black holes

Anatoly Dymarsky, Sotaro Sugishita

We construct black hole geometries in AdS with non-trivial values of KdV charges. The black holes are holographically dual to quantum KdV Generalized Gibbs Ensemble in 2d CFT.…

Dressed states from gauge invariance

Hayato Hirai, Sotaro Sugishita

The dressed state formalism enables us to define the infrared finite -matrix for QED. In the formalism, asymptotic charged states are dressed by clouds of photons. The dressed a…

Thoughts on Holographic Complexity and its Basis-dependence

Koji Hashimoto, Norihiro Iizuka, Sotaro Sugishita

In this paper, we argue that holographic complexity should be a basis-dependent quantity. Computational complexity of a state is defined as a minimum number of gates required to ob…
