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…

In the semiclassical approximation to JT gravity, we find two-point and four-point correlators of heavy operators. To do so, we introduce a massive particle in the bulk and compute its action with gravitational backreaction. In Euclidean…

Recently, it has been argued in [1] that Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity can be naturally realized in the Karch-Randall braneworld in $(2+1)$ dimensions. Using the `complexity=volume' proposal, we studied this model and computed the…

We develop a fully discrete and non-perturbative formulation of two-dimensional Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity within the BF framework. Using group-valued holonomies and Lie-algebra--valued dilatons, the bulk theory is shown to be purely…

We introduce the colored version of Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity which is the two-dimensional dilaton gravity model with matrix-valued fields. It is straightforwardly formulated in terms of BF action with $su(N,N)$ gauge algebra so that…

In this letter, we show that Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity can be naturally realized in the Karch-Randall braneworld. Notably the role of the dilaton in JT gravity is played by the radion in a suitably orbifolded version of the setup. In…

We construct a Hermitian random matrix model that provides a stable non-perturbative completion of Cangemi-Jackiw (CJ) gravity, a two-dimensional theory of flat spacetimes. The matrix model reproduces, to all orders in the topological…

We propose the three-dimensional bulk dual for Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity coupled with CFT$_2$ bath based on partial reduction. The bulk dual is classical AdS gravity with a defect brane which has small fluctuation in transverse direction.…
