We formulate the path integral for Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity in the second order formalism working directly with the metric and the dilaton. We consider the theory both in Anti-de Sitter(AdS) and de Sitter space(dS) and analyze the path…
We analyze deformations of $\mathcal{N}=1$ Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) supergravity by adding a gas of defects, equivalent to changing the dilaton potential. We compute the Euclidean partition function in a topological expansion and find that it…
We study thermal correlation functions of Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) supergravity. We focus on the case of JT supergravity on orientable surfaces without time-reversal symmetry. As shown by Stanford and Witten recently, the path integral…
An open question in AdS/CFT is how to reconstruct semiclassical bulk operators precisely enough that non-perturbative quantum effects can be computed. We propose a set of physically-motivated requirements for such a reconstruction map, and…
Recent work has shown that certain deformations of the scalar potential in Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity can be written as double-scaled matrix models. However, some of the deformations exhibit an apparent breakdown of unitarity in the form of…
We conjecture a formula for the spectral form factor of a double-scaled matrix integral in the limit of large time, large density of states, and fixed temperature. The formula has a genus expansion with a nonzero radius of convergence. To…
We argue that a discrete bulk spectrum with random statistics appears naturally in the Lorentzian description of Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity if an extra confining potential is introduced in the region where the renormalized geodesic…
It is well known that Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity posses the simplest theory on 2-dimensional gravity. The model has been fruitfully studied in recent years. In the present work, we investigate exact solutions for both JT and deformed JT…
A path integral in Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity is given by integrating over the volume of the moduli of Riemann surfaces with boundaries, known as the "Weil-Petersson volume," together with integrals over wiggles along the boundaries.…
We construct 2d Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity in the framework of symmetric teleparallel gravity based on a non-metricity tensor. In symmetric teleparallel gravity, we often use the scalar quantity $Q$ composed of the bilinear terms of the…
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…
The duality of Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity and a double scaled matrix integral has led to studies of the canonical spectral form factor (SFF) in the so called $\tau-$scaled limit of large times, $t \to \infty$, and fixed temperature in…
We study $\widehat{\text{CGHS}}$ gravity, a variant of the matterless Callan-Giddings-Harvey-Strominger model. We show that it describes a universal sector of the near horizon perturbations of non-extremal black holes in higher dimensions.…
We review recent developments in Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity. This is a simple solvable model of quantum gravity in two dimensions (that arises e.g. from the s-wave sector of higher dimensional gravity systems with spherical symmetry).…
It was proven recently that JT gravity can be defined as an ensemble of L x L Hermitian matrices. We point out that the eigenvalues of the matrix correspond in JT gravity to FZZT-type boundaries on which spacetimes can end. We then…
We generalize the recently discovered relationship between JT gravity and double-scaled random matrix theory to the case that the boundary theory may have time-reversal symmetry and may have fermions with or without supersymmetry. The…
We point out a correspondence between the Jackiw--Teitelboim (JT) gravity and the stationary measure of the Kardar--Parisi--Zhang (KPZ) equation on an interval. By relating the Schwarzian limit of the double-scaled SYK to the weakly…
We study canonical quantization of Jackiw-Teibelboim (JT) gravity coupled to a massless scalar field. We provide concrete expressions of matter SL(2,{\,\bf R}) charges and the boundary matter operators in terms of the creation and…

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…
