Algebra of diffeomorphism-invariant observables in Jackiw-Teitelboim Gravity
read the original abstract
In this paper we use the covariant Peierls bracket to compute the algebra of a sizable number of diffeomorphism-invariant observables in classical Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity coupled to fairly arbitrary matter. We then show that many recent results, including the construction of traversable wormholes, the existence of a family of $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$ algebras acting on the matter fields, and the calculation of the scrambling time, can be recast as simple consequences of this algebra. We also use it to clarify the question of when the creation of an excitation deep in the bulk increases or decreases the boundary energy, which is of crucial importance for the "typical state" versions of the firewall paradox. Unlike the "Schwarzian" or "boundary particle" formalism, our techniques involve no unphysical degrees of freedom and naturally generalize to higher dimensions. We do a few higher-dimensional calculations to illustrate this, which indicate that the results we obtain in JT gravity are fairly robust.

Relational path integral, effective actions and quantum frame covariance in gravity
The gravitational path integral is reformulated with dynamical reference frames, producing gauge-invariant correlators, frame-dependent vacua, and effective actions, with sharpness of events becoming frame-relative.

Anti-scrambling and euclidean folds from observer correlators in de Sitter space
Observer correlators in de Sitter exhibit anti-scrambling with a positive OTOC correction and 2π/β Lyapunov exponent, and a Euclidean-folding prescription for bounded-energy quantum systems is proposed.

Anti-scrambling and euclidean folds from observer correlators in de Sitter space
Semiclassical gravity in de Sitter space produces four-point observer correlators whose sign of the scrambling correction is opposite to the black-hole case (anti-scrambling); the authors propose bounded-energy quantu...
