The wide-spread opinion is that original quantum mechanics is a reversible theory, but this statement is only true for undecomposed systems, that are those systems which sub-systems are out of consideration. Taking sub-systems into account,…

N=4 Super Yang-Mills theory supplies us with a non-Abelian 4D gauge theory with a meaningful perturbation expansion, both in the UV and in the IR. We calculate the free energy on a 3-sphere and observe a deconfinement transition for large N…
We study the thermal partition function of level $k$ U(N) Chern-Simons theories on $S^2$ interacting with matter in the fundamental representation. We work in the 't Hooft limit, $N,k\to\infty$, with $\lambda = N/k$ and $\frac{T^2…
We argue that the Leutheusser-Liu procedure of isolating a von Neumann algebra in the $N = \infty$ limit of string theories, leads to the algebra of relativistic fermion fields on a half line for the $c = 1$ string theory. This is a Type…
We review recent developments in the use of von Neumann algebras to analyze the entanglement structure of quantum gravity and the emergence of spacetime in the semi-classical limit. Von Neumann algebras provide a natural framework for…
Infinite entanglement fluctuations appear when a quantum field theory on a causally complete domain of space-time is a type $III$ factor. In the weak gravity limit $G_N=0$ this factor can be transformed into a crossed product type $II$…
