We consider the holographic description of the dynamical black hole entropy in $f(R)$ higher curvature gravity which proposed by Hollands-Wald-Zhang. On the bulk side, we show that the coarse-grained entropy (outer entropy) of a generalized…
We give a review, in the style of an essay, of the author's 1998 matter-gravity entanglement hypothesis which, unlike the standard approach to entropy based on coarse-graining, offers a definition for the entropy of a closed system as a…
We consider the AdS_2/CFT_1 holographic correspondence near the horizon of rotating five-dimensional black holes preserving four supersymmetries in N=2 supergravity. The bulk partition function is given by a functional integral over string…
Two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory is a useful model of an exactly solvable gauge theory with a string theory dual at large $N$. We calculate entanglement entropy in the $1/N$ expansion by mapping the theory to a system of $N$ fermions…
We show that, for many choices of finite tuples of generators $X = (x_1, \dots , x_d)$ of a tracial von Neumann algebra $(M, \tau)$ satisfying certain decomposition properties (non-primeness, possessing a Cartan subalgebra, or property…
The non-relativistic versions of the generalized Poincar\'{e} algebras and generalized $AdS$-Lorentz algebras are obtained. This non-relativistic algebras are called, generalized Galilean algebras type I and type II and denoted by…
A standard insight of the AdS/CFT correspondence is that some aspects of the geometry of a bulk state are encoded in the entanglement structure of its dual boundary state. As entanglement is not a linear quantum observable, this means that…
The von Neumann entropy of an $n$-partite system $A_1^n$ given a system $B$ can be written as the sum of the von Neumann entropies of the individual subsystems $A_k$ given $A_1^{k-1}$ and $B$. While it is known that such a chain rule does…
Horndeski gravities are theories of gravity coupled to a scalar field, in which the action contains an additional non-minimal quadratic coupling of the scalar, through its first derivative, to the Einstein tensor or the analogous…
The large $N$ limit of the four-dimensional superconformal index was computed and successfully compared to the entropy of a class of AdS$_5$ black holes only in the particular case of equal angular momenta. Using the Bethe Ansatz…
We study the scalar perturbations of asymptotically flat extremal Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes via the quantum Seiberg-Witten geometry of $\mathcal{N}=2$ SU(2) gauge theory with $N_f=2$ flavors. The radial master equation, governed by a…
In this work, we revisit a recently reported generalization of the Ba\~nados-Teitelboim-Zanelli black hole arising in New Massive Gravity sourced by the quantum fluctuations of scalar matter, now examined through the lens of a purely…
It is shown that the *-algebra of all (closed densely defined linear) operators affiliated with a finite type I von Neumann algebra admits a unique center-valued trace, which turns out to be, in a sense, normal. It is also demonstrated that…
We consider unitary and weakly coupled theories of gravity that extend Einstein gravity and reduce to it asymptotically at large distances. Our discussion is restricted to such theories that, similarly to Einstein gravity, contain black…
We construct a large family of quantum mechanical systems that give rise to an emergent type III$_1$ von Neumann algebra in the large $N$ limit. Their partition functions are matrix integrals that appear in the study of various gauge…
The gravitational charge algebra of generic asymptotically locally (A)dS spacetimes is derived in $n$ dimensions. The analysis is performed in the Starobinsky/Fefferman-Graham gauge, without assuming any further boundary condition than the…
Black hole thermodynamics provides a unique setting in which general relativity, quantum field theory, and statistical mechanics converge. In semiclassical gravity, this interplay culminates in the generalized second law (GSL), whose modern…
Runaway solutions can be avoided in fourth order gravity by a doubling of the matter operator algebra with a symmetry constraint with respect to the exchange of observable and hidden degrees of freedom together with the change in sign of…
The study investigates the gravitational scattering amplitude between two Schwarzschild black holes in a two to two interaction, focusing on the Second Post-Minkowskian correction (2 PM). Analyzing contributions from box and cross-box…
Popular approaches to quantum gravity describe black hole microstates differently and apply different statistics to count them. Since the relationship between the approaches is not clear, this obscures the role of statistics in calculating…
