abstract

We describe new boundary conditions for AdS$_2$ in Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity. The asymptotic symmetry group is enhanced to $\r{Diff}(S^1)\ltimes C^\infty(S^1)$ whose breaking to $\r{SL}(2,\R)\times \r{U}(1)$ controls the near-AdS$_2$ dynamics. The action reduces to a boundary term which is a generalization of the Schwarzian theory and can be interpreted as the coadjoint action of the warped Virasoro group. This theory reproduces the low-energy effective action of the complex SYK model. We compute the Euclidean path integral and derive its relation to the random matrix ensemble of Saad, Shenker and Stanford. We study the flat space version of this action, and show that the corresponding path integral also gives an ensemble average, but of a much simpler nature. We explore some applications to near-extremal black holes.

    Gauging a momentum shift symmetry in sine dilaton gravity yields the DSSYK spectrum, makes negative-length states null, and predicts a finite entropy S=2πθ−2θ² instead of the Bekenstein-Hawking area law.

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Near-extremal Kerr-dS4 and Kerr-AdS4 black holes admit a sector of metric perturbations whose linearized dynamics is the JT equation, with a Schwarzian effective action for the AdS case.

    For BTZ-like black holes in Einstein-bumblebee gravity, the conserved charges, central charges, and entropy all acquire factors of the Lorentz-violating parameter, and the near-horizon extremal case admits a Virasoro-...
