For a field theory with a gravitational dual, following Susskind's proposal we define holographic complexity for a subsystem. The holographic complexity is proportional to the volume of a co-dimension one time slice in the bulk geometry enclosed by the extremal co-dimension two hyper-surface appearing in the computation of the holographic entanglement entropy. The proportionally constant, up to a numerical order of one factor is G R where G is the Newton constant and R is the curvature of the space time. We study this quantity in certain holographic model. We also explore a possible relation between the defined quantity and fidelity appearing in quantum information literature.

  1. Evaporating Black Hole Interior and Complexity Evolution

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    In a JT gravity model with an EoW brane, black hole interior complexity grows linearly until the Page time then decays exponentially, with fluctuations growing large afterward and signaling loss of self-averaging.

  2. A Timelike Quantum Focusing Conjecture

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    A timelike quantum focusing conjecture implies a complexity-based quantum strong energy condition and a complexity bound analogous to the covariant entropy bound for suitable codimension-0 field theory complexity measures.
