In JT gravity with an end-of-the-world brane, the renormalized interior length — read as subsystem complexity — grows linearly, peaks around the Page time, and then decays exponentially, with growing relative fluctuations afterward.
Positivity of gravitational path integral inner products requires non-perturbative instabilities in axion wormholes that break shift symmetry, implying a sharp axion weak gravity conjecture with precise constants.
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.
Unitary QFTs are determined up to unitary isomorphism by closed-manifold partition functions; every reflection-positive partition function comes from a unitary QFT, so spatial wormholes do not break Hilbert-space factorization once the full charged spectrum is included.
Imaginary wormholes and the IDB imply that towers of BPS EFT instantons generate infinitely many superpotential terms that break non-invertible axion shift symmetries in N=1 axiverse models.
In no-roll quantum cosmology, fixing the integration constant for potential energy yields a one-dimensional Hilbert space selecting Vilenkin's tunnelling wavefunction, while arbitrary values permit an infinite-dimensional space with a one-parameter family of boundary conditions at the singularity th
Large N symmetric orbifold CFTs decompose into superselection sectors that behave as closed universes, with each physical sector becoming one-dimensional after gauging, matching gravitational expectations.
Proposal that compact d-manifolds with elliptic data prepare boundary quantum states |J>, with Rényi entropies from path integrals agreeing with minimal-surface formulas after analytic continuation.
Inner horizon saddles supply the semiclassical correction -exp(A_inner/4G) to near-extremal black-hole entropy and motivate a spectral KSW criterion for well-defined one-loop effects around complex gravitational saddles.
Open Virasoro TQFT equals fixed-length/angle 3d gravity path integrals on compact regions and yields the CTV–scalar Virasoro relation via open-closed duality.
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.
3d gravity on Σ_{g,n} × I with EOW branes equals the Virasoro minimal string random matrix model, with exact match for g=0 n=2 and inner-product formulation for negative Euler characteristic.
The Euclidean path integral on elliptic de Sitter defines a no-boundary density matrix whose entropies reduce to vertex operator correlators on non-orientable surfaces, with a one-dimensional global Hilbert space but nontrivial observer Fock spaces.
Establishes a threefold duality linking Krylov complexity growth rate to wormhole velocity and proper momentum in DSSYK holography, with higher moments capturing replica wormholes and Krylov entropy equaling parent-geometry von Neumann entropy after tracing baby universes.
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.
Quantum gravity may permit contextual deviations from the Fisher metric, inducing observer-dependent modifications to the Born rule.
Establishes holography of information in the CGHS model via asymptotic algebras and argues that islands violate commutativity of left- and right-boundary algebras.
When topology sums generate nontrivial baby-universe sectors, the holography of information refines to an alpha-sectorwise statement, making the absence of firewalls conditional on global sector data rather than local geometry alone.
Perturbative string theory forbids de Sitter times closed manifold solutions under the assumption that the Euclidean sphere partition function receives a nonzero 1/G_N contribution.
The boundary theory of near-extremal RN black holes shows a replica phase transition controlled by temperature and the couplings C, K, and E.
Presents cavity-based effective descriptions for scalar radiation from black holes and modified models, linking them to wave profiles and accumulated phase shifts for detecting small deviations from classical behavior.
