abstract
We present evidence for a duality between Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity minimally coupled to a free massive scalar field and a single-trace two-matrix model. One matrix is the Hamiltonian $H$ of a holographic disorder-averaged quantum mechanics, while the other matrix is the light operator $\cal O$ dual to the bulk scalar field. The single-boundary observables of interest are thermal correlation functions of $\cal O$. We study the matching of the genus zero one- and two-boundary expectation values in the matrix model to the disk and cylinder Euclidean path integrals. The non-Gaussian statistics of the matrix elements of $\cal O$ correspond to a generalization of the ETH ansatz. We describe multiple ways to construct double-scaled matrix models that reproduce the gravitational disk correlators. One method involves imposing an operator equation obeyed by $H$ and $\cal O$ as a constraint on the two matrices. Separately, we design a model that reproduces certain double-scaled SYK correlators that may be scaled once more to obtain the disk correlators. We show that in any single-trace, two-matrix model, the genus zero two-boundary expectation value, with up to one $\cal O$ insertion on each boundary, can be computed directly from all of the genus zero one-boundary correlators. Applied to the models of interest, we find that these cylinder observables depend on the details of the double-scaling limit. To the extent we have checked, it is possible to reproduce the gravitational double-trumpet, which is UV divergent, from a systematic classification of matrix model `t Hooft diagrams. The UV divergence indicates that the matrix integral saddle of interest is perturbatively unstable. A non-perturbative treatment of the matrix models discussed in this work is left for future investigations.

An entropic puzzle in periodic dilaton gravity and DSSYK
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.

JT gravity on the worldline
Coupling a worldline observer to JT gravity replaces its evolution operator by an exactly computed average over fluctuating Euclidean times; the fluctuations are small in the disk but large on the double trumpet.

de Sitter JT gravity from double-scaled SYK
The upper edge of the DSSYK spectrum, in a triple scaling limit, exactly reproduces the matrix model of two-dimensional de Sitter JT gravity.

Chaos and the Emergence of the Cosmological Horizon
Finite-mass observers in dS2 have non-commuting type I algebras, and their OTOC shows a Lyapunov exponent 4π/β_dS, twice the de Sitter bound.

Resolving Black Hole Singularities in Jackiw-Teitelboim Gravity
In JT gravity, the left confining potential required by spectral discreteness makes the wormhole length turn around and plateau, allowing boundary time to run past the would-be singularity and eliminating future horizons.

Holography of K-complexity: Switchbacks and Shockwaves
Operator Krylov complexity in triple-scaled DSSYK matches JT-gravity geodesic lengths with shockwaves and exhibits the switchback effect when the Lanczos algorithm is perturbed by two-sided operator insertions.

Non-perturbative corrections in the semi-classical limit of double-scaled SYK
Non-perturbative corrections in the small-coupling limit of the double-scaled SYK partition function are resummed into a cubic power of the Dedekind eta function, in both the low-energy and low-temperature limits.
