In this work, we study a type of commuting SYK model in which all terms in the Hamiltonian are commutative to each other. Because of the commutativity, this model has a large number of conserved charges and is integrable. After the ensemble…
We study electromagnetic perturbations and the associated quasinormal modes (QNMs) of parametrized static, spherically symmetric wormhole spacetimes, focusing on Damour-Solodukhin and braneworld geometries as well as their galactic…
We study the role of ensemble averaging in holography by exploring the relation between the universal late time behavior of the spectral form factor and the second Renyi entropy of a thermal mixed state of the doubled system. Both…
The gravitational path integral produces an asymptotic expansion in $G_N$, a fact which is puzzling in the case of observables that are expected to fluctuate wildly. Wormholes appear to compute ensemble averages of functions of such…
Disorder effects are especially pronounced around nodal points in linearly dispersing bandstructures as present in graphene or Weyl semimetals. Despite the enormous experimental and numerical progress, even a simple quantity like the…
We investigate two sparse Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) systems coupled by a bilinear term as a holographic quantum mechanical description of an eternal traversable wormhole in the low temperature limit. Each SYK system consists of $N$ Majorana…
We investigate the spectral form factor of the sparse Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model. We use numerical methods to establish that at intermediate times the connected part of the spectral form factor is the dominant one. These connected…
The interpretation of semiclassical gravity as an ensemble-average of CFTs has provided much progress in understanding the factorization problem and the information paradox. In this article, we consider an averaging over boundary conditions…
Using results of statistical field theory for systems with an anisotropic disorder, we present an analog model for Euclidean wormholes and topological fluctuation effects in a Riemannian space $\mathcal{M}^\mathrm{d}$. The contribution of…
Recent discoveries have highlighted the significance of replica wormholes in resolving the information paradox and establishing the unitarity of black hole evaporation. In this letter, we propose the dissipative Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model…
In \url{arXiv:1704.07208} it was shown that the spectrum and bilocal propagator of SYK model with four fermion interactions can be realized as a three dimensional model in $AdS_2 \times S^1/Z_2$ with nontrivial boundary conditions in the…
We study the average density of resonances, $<\rho(x,y)>$, in a semi-infinite disordered chain coupled to a perfect lead. The function $<\rho(x,y)>$ is defined in the complex energy plane and the distance $y$ from the real axes determines…
In the 1980's, work by Coleman and by Giddings and Strominger linked the physics of spacetime wormholes to `baby universes' and an ensemble of theories. We revisit such ideas, using features associated with a negative cosmological constant…
Skewness is a common occurrence in statistical applications. In recent years, various distribution families have been proposed to model skewed data by introducing unequal scales based on the median or mode. However, we argue that the point…
We demonstrate that a semiflexible bundle of wormlike chains exhibits a state-dependent bending stiffness that alters fundamentally its scaling behavior with respect to the standard wormlike chain. We explore the equilibrium conformational…
We propose a mean field theory for the localization of damage in a quasistatic fuse model on a cylinder. Depending on the quenched disorder distribution of the fuse thresholds, we show analytically that the system can either stay in a…
We give qualitative arguments for the mesoscopic nature of the Sachdev-Yee-Kitaev (SYK) model in the holographic regime with $q^2/N\ll 1$ with $N$ Majorana particles coupled by antisymmetric and random interactions of range $q$. Using a…
This is the first part of a series of papers on the spectrum of the SYK model, which is a simple model of the black hole in physics literature. In this paper, we will give a rigorous proof of the almost sure convergence of the global…
We demonstrate, for the first time, that arbitrary spherically symmetric metrics can be derived within a framework based on the coupling of two scalar fields and an electromagnetic field. We then specialize to a class of non-stationary…
In this paper, we introduce an $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric SYK model with $SO(q)$ global symmetry. We study the large $N$ expansion of the bi-local collective action of our model. At strong coupling limit, this model exhibits a…
