IAS Quantum Aspects of Black Holes Meeting

"Wormholes" seem to describe ensemble averages of some kind, but in realistic models of holography, like AdS_4xS^7, it seems there isn't anything to average over, except, in some examples, a single integer N. Is "averaging over N" enough to account...

In the original CPT theorem one is restricted to flat space and is unable to make converse statements. In this talk I will show how we can reformulate the CPT theorem using a symmetry argument and generalise it to beyond flat space. This in turn...

The connection between 3d pure gravity and Chern-Simons theory has been proposed and studied for decades. In this talk, I will give a brief review of the works 2304.13650 and 2401.13900 with Scott Collier and Lorenz Eberhardt, where we sharpen this...
