The Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) model arises from the dimensional reduction of charged black holes. Motivated by the holographic complexity conjecture, we calculate the late-time rate of change of action of a Wheeler-DeWitt patch in the JT…
We provide a holographic perspective on correlation functions in Schwarzian quantum mechanics, as boundary-anchored Wilson line correlators in Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity. We first study compact groups and identify the diagrammatic…
We show that the free energy at low temperatures for near-extremal black holes is correctly obtained from the Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) model of gravity. Our arguments apply to all black holes, including rotating ones, whose metric has a…
We propose a microscopic definition of finite cut-off JT quantum gravity on the disk, both in the discretized and in the continuum points of view. The discretized formulation involves a new model of so-called self-overlapping random…
We explore the role of the Cremmer-Scherk mechanism in the context of low energy effective string theory by coupling the antisymmetric 3-form gauge potential to an Abelian gauge potential carrying weak hypercharge. The theory admits a class…
Boundaries in gauge theory and gravity give rise to symmetries and charges at both finite and asymptotic distance. Due to their structural similarities, it is often held that soft modes are some kind of asymptotic limit of edge modes. Here,…
We revisit some properties of AdS$_2$ Einstein-Maxwell gravity with the aim of reconciling apparently conflicting results in prior literature. We show that the two dimensional theory can be obtained as a dimensional reduction of the three…
We demonstrate how the two-dimensional gravity emerges within ``GR from RG'' program initiated in \cite{Adami:2025pqr, Sheikh-Jabbari:2026uol}. To achieve this, we consider a generic 2d CFT with a 3d holographic description, which we assume…
Cosmological analysis of extended Jordan-Brans-Dicke (eJBD) gravity is presented in the Einstein metric frame in which gravitational interaction is readily understandable. Our formulation is the first systematic investigation of how to…
We construct solutions within Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity in the presence of nontrivial couplings between the dilaton and the Abelian $1$-form where we analyse the asymptotic structure as well as the phase stability corresponding to…
We find a simple relation between the first subleading terms in the asymptotic expansion of the metric field in AdS$_3$, obeying the Brown-Henneaux boundary conditions, and the stress tensor of the underlying Liouville theory on the…
In this paper we analyse and discuss 2D Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity coupled to primary fermion fields in asymptotically anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetimes. We get a particular solution of the massless Dirac field outside the extremal black…
We argue that two-dimensional dilaton gravity models can all be derived from an analog of Jacobson's covariant version of the first law of thermodynamics. We then specialize to the JT gravity model and couple it to massless fermions. This…
We provide an account of the issue of Gibbons-Hawking-York-like boundary terms for a gravity theory defined on a Riemman-Cartan spacetime. We further discuss different criteria for introducing boundary terms in some familiar first-order…
We propose a non-linear extension of the Fierz-Pauli mass for the graviton through a functional of the vielbein and an external Minkowski background. The functional generalizes the notion of the measure, since it reduces to a cosmological…
Two-dimensional BF theory with infinitely many higher spin fields is proposed. It is interpreted as the AdS(2) higher spin gravity model describing a consistent interaction between local fields in AdS(2) space including gravitational field,…
Liouville Quantum Field Theory can be seen as a probabilistic theory of 2d Riemannian metrics $e^{\phi(z)}dz^2$, conjecturally describing scaling limits of discrete $2d$-random surfaces. The law of the random field $\phi$ in LQFT depends on…
In this work, we promote the global $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$ symmetry of the Schwarzian derivative to a local gauge symmetry. To achieve this, we develop a procedure that potentially can be generalized beyond the $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$ case: We first…
The conductance of graphene subject to a strong, tilted magnetic field exhibits a dramatic change from insulating to conducting behavior with tilt-angle, regarded as evidence for the transition from a canted antiferromagnetic (CAF) to a…
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…
