abstract
We construct a few Euclidean supergravity solutions with multiple boundaries. We consider examples where the corresponding boundary field theory is well defined on each boundary. We point out that these configurations are puzzling from the AdS/CFT point of view. A proper understanding of the AdS/CFT dictionary for these cases might yield some information about the physics of closed universes.

AdS exotic compact objects imprint bulk-cone singularities from null geodesics and echoes from trapped waves on CFT Green functions, signaling no horizon.
Summing non-perturbative contributions in the gravitational path integral, extended via matrix integral saddles including one- and two-eigenvalue instantons, resolves negativity of bulk entropies in two-sided black holes.
The Hartle-Hawking state for toroidal quantum cosmologies is expressed in the Langlands decomposition as a sum over zeta zeros whose near-singularity dynamics follow the Hilbert-Pólya Hamiltonian and as a Möbius average of CFT partition functions.
The paper identifies a variety of Euclidean saddle solutions including wormholes and oscillatory configurations in Einstein-Scalar-Maxwell models, demonstrates how oscillations are controlled by lifting flat potential directions, finds phase transitions, and shows analytic continuation to FLRW cosm
In gapped random matrix systems with parametrically many degenerate ground states, the spectral form factor at low temperatures is dominated by the disconnected contribution at all times, while the connected form factor depends only on the non-degenerate eigenvalues.
Generalized Euclidean wormhole constructions in 3D gravity produce holographic duals to approximately homogeneous closed baby-universe cosmologies and identify a necessary condition for the cosmological saddle to dominate the path integral.
Introduces RMT surgery to relate off-shell 3D gravity partition functions to CFT spectral statistics via Euclidean wormholes with four-punctured sphere and trumpet boundaries.
The paper shows that Euclidean axion wormholes remain regular and stable in AdS3 for any mouth radius to AdS radius ratio and across topologies, with computable actions that can be included in the 3D gravitational path integral.
Wormhole effects in theories with imaginary massless scalars set an upper limit on analytic continuation of couplings to imaginary values, with string theory examples showing the low-energy theory breaks down at or before this bound.
Merons are universal in many non-Abelian gauge theories and source regular black holes and Euclidean wormholes via a non-Abelian Ayón-Beato-García generalization.
A modified semiclassical holographic dictionary is used to construct an extended gravitational path integral that factorizes, reproduces the Page curve for entropy, and includes operators for baby universe states.
Finite cutoff in JT gravity causes faster ERB-length saturation, deformation-dependent baby-universe emission only under Lorentzian evolution, and possible one-cut universality corrections in the matrix dual.
Open Virasoro TQFT computes 3d gravity path integrals on compact regions using threshold-dependent boundary conditions and yields an open-closed duality relating Conformal Turaev-Viro theory to the diagonal sector of two Virasoro TQFT copies.
Reviews construction of physical inner products in canonical quantum gravity via group averaging and BRST formalism, illustrated in mini-superspace models and connected to path integrals.
