Holographic description of Narain CFTs and their code-based ensembles

O Aharony, A Dymarsky, AD Shapere - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract We provide a precise relation between an ensemble of Narain conformal field
theories (CFTs) with central charge c= n, and a sum of (U (1)× U (1)) n Chern-Simons …

Generalized Narain Theories Decoded: Discussions on Eisenstein series, Characteristics, Orbifolds, Discriminants and Ensembles in any Dimension

M Ashwinkumar, A Kidambi, JM Leedom… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
We study a class of newly-introduced CFTs associated with even quadratic forms of general
signature, which we call generalized Narain theories. We first summarize the properties of …

Wormholes and surface defects in rational ensemble holography

J Raeymaekers, P Rossi - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract We study wormhole contributions to the bulk path integral in holographic models
which are dual to ensembles of rational free boson conformal field theories. We focus on the …

Ensemble averages of ℤ2 orbifold classes of Narain CFTs

S Förste, H Jockers, J Kames-King, A Kanargias… - Journal of High Energy …, 2024 - Springer
A bstract In this work we study families of ℤ 2 orbifolds of toroidal conformal field theories
based on both factorizable and non-factorizable target space tori. For these classes of …

De Sitter Bra-Ket Wormholes

A Fumagalli, V Gorbenko, J Kames-King - arXiv preprint arXiv:2408.08351, 2024 - arxiv.org
We study a model for the initial state of the universe based on a gravitational path integral
that includes connected geometries which simultaneously produce bra and ket of the wave …

Deriving the long-string CFT in AdS

B Knighton - arXiv preprint arXiv:2410.16904, 2024 - arxiv.org
We revisit the path integral formulation of bosonic string theory in locally-AdS $ _3 $
spacetimes. Through a careful analysis of the worldsheet sigma model, we write down an …

[图书][B] Aspects of Low Dimensional Quantum Gravity

M Usatyuk - 2023 - search.proquest.com
This thesis will be an exploration of various topics within low dimensional quantum gravity,
with an emphasis on the gravitational path integral. We begin by studying two-dimensional …
