Conformal field theories have been long known to describe the fascinating universal physics
of scale invariant critical points. They describe continuous phase transitions in fluids …

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 comprehensive overview of holographic methods in quantum matter, written by pioneers
in the field. This book, written by pioneers in the field, offers a comprehensive overview of …

A bstract Chaos and complexity entail an entropic and computational obstruction to
describing a system, and thus are intrinsically difficult to characterize. In this paper, we …

We study the quantum effects of Near-Extremal black holes near their horizons. The
gravitational dynamics in such backgrounds are closely connected to a particle in AdS 2 with …

A bstract Relativistic quantum systems that admit scattering experiments are quantitatively
described by effective field theories, where S-matrix kinematics and symmetry …

Quantum tunneling of a black hole into a white hole provides a model for the full life cycle of
a black hole. The white hole acts as a long-lived remnant, providing a possible resolution to …

A bstract A manifestation of the black hole information loss problem is that the two-point
function of probe operators in a large Anti-de Sitter black hole decays in time, whereas, on …

A bstract We show that an extremely generic class of two-dimensional conformal field
theories (CFTs) contains a sector described by the Schwarzian theory. This applies to …

A bstract We initiate an approach to constraining conformal field theory (CFT) data at finite
temperature using methods inspired by the conformal bootstrap for vacuum correlation …
