Large N field theories, string theory and gravity

O Aharony, SS Gubser, J Maldacena, H Ooguri, Y Oz - Physics Reports, 2000 - Elsevier
We review the holographic correspondence between field theories and string/M theory,
focusing on the relation between compactifications of string/M theory on Anti-de Sitter …

Lessons from the information paradox

S Raju - Physics Reports, 2022 - Elsevier
We review recent progress on the information paradox. We explain why exponentially small
correlations in the radiation emitted by a black hole are sufficient to resolve the original …

Bulk locality and quantum error correction in AdS/CFT

A Almheiri, X Dong, D Harlow - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015 - Springer
A bstract We point out a connection between the emergence of bulk locality in AdS/CFT and
the theory of quantum error correction. Bulk notions such as Bogoliubov transformations …

Symmetries in quantum field theory and quantum gravity

D Harlow, H Ooguri - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2021 - Springer
In this paper we use the AdS/CFT correspondence to refine and then establish a set of old
conjectures about symmetries in quantum gravity. We first show that any global symmetry …

Quantum extremal surfaces: holographic entanglement entropy beyond the classical regime

N Engelhardt, AC Wall - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015 - Springer
A bstract We propose that holographic entanglement entropy can be calculated at arbitrary
orders in the bulk Planck constant using the concept of a “quantum extremal surface”: a …

Inconsistency of islands in theories with long-range gravity

H Geng, A Karch, C Perez-Pardavila, S Raju… - Journal of High Energy …, 2022 - Springer
A bstract In ordinary gravitational theories, any local bulk operator in an entanglement
wedge is accompanied by a long-range gravitational dressing that extends to the asymptotic …

Localized shocks

DA Roberts, D Stanford, L Susskind - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015 - Springer
A bstract We study products of precursors of spatially local operators,\({W_x} _ {{}
_n}(tn)\cdot\cdot\cdot {W} _ {x_1}\left ({t} _1\right)\), where W x (t)= e− iHt W xe iHt. Using …

Reconstruction of bulk operators within the entanglement wedge in gauge-gravity duality

X Dong, D Harlow, AC Wall - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
In this Letter we prove a simple theorem in quantum information theory, which implies that
bulk operators in the anti–de Sitter/conformal field theory (AdS/CFT) correspondence can be …

The black hole interior from non-isometric codes and complexity

C Akers, N Engelhardt, D Harlow, G Penington… - Journal of High Energy …, 2024 - Springer
A bstract Quantum error correction has given us a natural language for the emergence of
spacetime, but the black hole interior poses a challenge for this framework: at late times the …

[BOOK][B] Gauge/string duality, hot QCD and heavy ion collisions

J Casalderrey-Solana, H Liu, D Mateos, K Rajagopal… - 2014 - library.oapen.org
Heavy ion collision experiments recreating the quark-gluon plasma that filled the nascent
universe have established that it is a nearly perfect liquid that flows with such minimal …
