Solvable models of quantum black holes: a review on Jackiw–Teitelboim gravity

TG Mertens, GJ Turiaci - Living Reviews in Relativity, 2023 - Springer
We review recent developments in Jackiw–Teitelboim gravity. This is a simple solvable
model of quantum gravity in two dimensions (that arises eg from the s-wave sector of higher …

Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev models and beyond: Window into non-Fermi liquids

D Chowdhury, A Georges, O Parcollet… - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2022 - APS
This is a review of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model of compressible quantum many-
body systems without quasiparticle excitations, and its connections to various theoretical …

A bulk manifestation of Krylov complexity

E Rabinovici, A Sánchez-Garrido, R Shir… - Journal of High Energy …, 2023 - Springer
A bstract There are various definitions of the concept of complexity in Quantum Field Theory
as well as for finite quantum systems. For several of them there are conjectured holographic …

The bulk Hilbert space of double scaled SYK

HW Lin - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 - Springer
A bstract The emergence of the bulk Hilbert space is a mysterious concept in holography. In
[1], the SYK model was solved in the double scaling limit by summing chord diagrams. Here …

JT gravity and the ensembles of random matrix theory

D Stanford, E Witten - arxiv preprint arxiv:1907.03363, 2019 - arxiv.org
We generalize the recently discovered relationship between JT gravity and double-scaled
random matrix theory to the case that the boundary theory may have time-reversal symmetry …

Black holes and random matrices

JS Cotler, G Gur-Ari, M Hanada, J Polchinski… - Journal of High Energy …, 2017 - Springer
A bstract We argue that the late time behavior of horizon fluctuations in large anti-de Sitter
(AdS) black holes is governed by the random matrix dynamics characteristic of quantum …

A semiclassical ramp in SYK and in gravity

P Saad, SH Shenker, D Stanford - arxiv preprint arxiv:1806.06840, 2018 - arxiv.org
In finite entropy systems, real-time partition functions do not decay to zero at late time.
Instead, assuming random matrix universality, suitable averages exhibit a growing" ramp" …

Eternal traversable wormhole

J Maldacena, XL Qi - arxiv preprint arxiv:1804.00491, 2018 - arxiv.org
We construct a nearly-$ AdS_2 $ solution describing an eternal traversable wormhole. The
solution contains negative null energy generated by quantum fields under the influence of …

Fermionic localization of the Schwarzian theory

D Stanford, E Witten - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 - Springer
A bstract The SYK model is a quantum mechanical model that has been proposed to be
holographically dual to a 1+ 1-dimensional model of a quantum black hole. An emergent …

Large- theory of critical Fermi surfaces. II. Conductivity

H Guo, AA Patel, I Esterlis, S Sachdev - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
A Fermi surface coupled to a scalar field can be described in a 1/N expansion by choosing
the fermion-scalar Yukawa coupling to be random in the N-dimensional flavor space, but …
