Abstract
We investigate the connection between spacetime wormholes and ensemble averaging in the context of higher spin AdS/CFT. Using techniques from modular bootstrap combined with some holographic inputs, we evaluate the partition function of a Euclidean wormhole in AdS higher spin gravity. The fixed spin sectors of the dual CFT exhibit features that starkly go beyond conventional random matrix ensembles: power-law ramps in the spectral form factor and potentials with a double-well/crest underlying the level statistics.
