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.

Replica wormholes and the black hole interior

hep-th · 2019-11-27 · conditional · novelty 9.0

Replica wormhole geometries justify the replica trick computation of the Page curve in holographic black hole models and support entanglement wedge reconstruction via the Petz map.

M\"obius randomness in the Hartle-Hawking state

hep-th · 2025-05-05 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

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.

A Menagerie of Wormholes and Cosmologies in the Gravitational Path Integral

hep-th · 2026-02-26 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

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

Spectral Form Factor of Gapped Random Matrix Systems

hep-th · 2026-01-28 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

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.

Menagerie of Euclidean constructions for 3D holographic cosmologies

hep-th · 2026-01-15 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

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.

Surgery and statistics in 3d gravity

hep-th · 2025-06-04 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

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.

Wormholes and the imaginary distance bound

hep-th · 2026-05-06 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

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.

Universality of merons in non-Abelian gauge theories

hep-th · 2026-04-15 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

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.

How to have your wormholes and factorize, too

hep-th · 2026-02-16 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

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.
