In this work we explore ideas in quantizing AdS$_3$ Einstein gravity. We start with the most general solution to the 3d gravity theory which respects Brown-Henneaux boundary conditions. These solutions are specified by two holomorphic…
The AdS/CFT conjecture relates quantum gravity on Anti-de Sitter (AdS) space to a conformal field theory (CFT) defined on the spacetime boundary. We interpret the CFT in terms of natural analogues of the bulk S-matrix. Our first approach…
We study one-dimensional disordered systems with average non-invertible symmetries, where quenched disorder may locally break part of the symmetry while preserving it upon disorder averaging. A canonical example is the random…
According to the AdS/CFT correspondence, the geometries of certain spacetimes are fully determined by quantum states that live on their boundaries -- indeed, by the von Neumann entropies of portions of those boundary states. This work…
We present the first example of $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ formulation for the extended higher-spin $AdS_3$ supergravity with the most general boundary conditions as an extension of the $\mathcal{N} =\,(1,1)$ work, discovered recently by us [1].…
A finite action principle for three-dimensional gravity with negative cosmological constant, based on a boundary condition for the asymptotic extrinsic curvature, is considered. The bulk action appears naturally supplemented by a boundary…
Resorting to the notion of a stress tensor induced on the boundary of a spacetime, we compute the conserved charges associated to exact solutions of New Massive Gravity that obey weakened versions of AdS_3 asymptotic boundary conditions.…
Disordered systems are interesting for many physical reasons. In this article, we study the renormalization group property of quenched disorder systems in the presence of a boundary. We construct examples of scalar field theories in various…
The Chern-Simons formulation of $AdS_3$ supergravity is considered. Asymptotic conditions on the Rarita-Schwinger fields are given. Together with the known boundary conditions on the bosonic fields, these ensure that the asymptotic algebra…
Starting from the isomorphism between the AdS Carroll and Poincar\'e algebras, we map the three-dimensional asymptotically flat solutions of Poincar\'e gravity into an AdS Carroll spacetime. We show the mapped solutions satisfy the field…
We investigate the reconstruction of asymptotically anti-de Sitter (AdS) bulk geometries from boundary entanglement entropy data for ball-shaped entangling regions. By deriving an explicit inversion formula, we relate variations in…
Materials failure in 3D still poses basic challenges. We study 3D brittle crack dynamics using a phase-field approach, where Gaussian quenched disorder in the fracture energy is incorporated. Disorder is characterized by a correlation…
String theory contains solutions with SL(2,R)_R x U(1)_L-invariant warped AdS3 (WAdS3) factors arising as continuous deformations of ordinary AdS3 factors. We propose that some of these are holographically dual to the IR limits of nonlocal…
We develop a systematic method for renormalizing the AdS/CFT prescription for computing correlation functions. This involves regularizing the bulk on-shell supergravity action in a covariant way, computing all divergences, adding…
We formulate a holographic description of effects of disorder in conformal field theories based on the replica method and the AdS/CFT correspondence. Starting with $n$ copies of conformal field theories, randomness with a gaussian…
We discuss the stochastic mean-field theory (SMFT) method which is a new approach for describing disordered Bose systems in the thermodynamic limit including localization and dimensional effects. We explicate the method in detail and apply…
We study the depinning transition of a driven chain-like system in the presence of frustration and quenched disorder. The analysis is motivated by recent transport experiments on artificial vortex-flow channels in superconducting thin…
We numerically study weak, random, spatial velocity modulation ["quenched gravitational disorder" (QGD)] in two-dimensional massless Dirac materials. QGD couples to the spatial components of the stress tensor; the gauge-invariant disorder…
In this work we present a BMS-like ansatz for a Chern-Simons theory based on the semi-simple enlargement of the Poincar\'e symmetry, also known as AdS-Lorentz algebra. We start by showing that this ansatz is general enough to contain all…
We find the most general solution to Chern-Simons AdS$_3$ gravity in Fefferman-Graham gauge. The connections are equivalent to geometries that have a non-trivial curved boundary, characterized by a 2-dimensional vielbein and a spin…
