We introduce an entropy function for supersymmetric accelerating black holes in $AdS_4$, that uplift on general Sasaki-Einstein manifolds $X_7$ to solutions of M-theory. This allows one to compute the black hole entropy without knowing the…

We present the simplest topological classification of wormholes and demonstrate that in open Friedmann models the genus $n\geq 1$ wormholes are stable and do not require the presence of exotic forms of matter, or any modification of general…

A systematic procedure is proposed for better understanding the evolution laws of black holes in terms of pure quantum states. We start with the two opposed regions I and II in the Penrose diagram, and study the evolution of matter in these…

A wormhole is a hypothetical tunnel through space. We employ the techniques taught in a standard calculus course to generate the images (embedding diagrams) of the Schwarzschild Wormhole and the Thorne-Morris Wormhole.

We consider wormhole solutions in $2+1$ Euclidean dimensions. A duality transformation is introduced to derive a new action from magnetic wormhole action of Gupta, Hughes, Preskill and Wise. The classical solution is presented. The vertex…

The statistical mechanics of a gas of Einstein-Kalb-Ramond wormholes is studied in this paper. The wormholes studied are the result of sewing together two Reissner-Nordstrom-type black hole metrics at their horizons. By requiring the…

Quantization is performed of a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe filled with a conformally invariant scalar field and a perfect fluid with equation of state $p=\alpha \rho$. A well-known discrete set of static quantum wormholes is shown…

We provide a non-perturbative geometrical characterization of the partition function of $n$-dimensional quantum gravity based on a coarse classification of riemannian geometries. We show that, under natural geometrical constraints, the…

We interpret the traversable wormhole in AdS/CFT in the context of quantum information theory. In particular, we investigate its properties as both a quantum channel and entanglement witness. We define protocols that allow either the…

We find half-wormhole solutions in Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity by allowing the geometry to end on a spacetime D-brane with specific boundary conditions. This theory also contains a Euclidean wormhole which leads to a factorization problem. We…

We develop a universal approximation for the Renyi entropies of a pure state at late times in a non-integrable many-body system, which macroscopically resembles an equilibrium density matrix. The resulting expressions are fully determined…

We investigate the quantum stability of a timelike topological wormhole with a simple geometry $M_2 \times S^2$, supported classically by anisotropic fluid. We compute the one-loop quantum backreaction generated by the vacuum fluctuations…

We define a (semi-classical) path integral for gravity with Neumann boundary conditions in $D$ dimensions, and show how to relate this new partition function to the usual picture of Euclidean quantum gravity. We also write down the action…

An $n$-dimensional Riemannian space is said to be of embedding class $m$ if $n+m$ is the lowest dimension of the flat space in which the given space can be embedded. A spherically symmetric spacetime of class two can be reduced to class one…

Path integral formulation of quantum mechanics defines the wavefunction associated with a particle as a sum of phase-factors, which are periodic functions of classical action. In the present article, this periodicity is shown to impart the…
