Lessons from the information paradox

S Raju - Physics Reports, 2022 - Elsevier
We review recent progress on the information paradox. We explain why exponentially small
correlations in the radiation emitted by a black hole are sufficient to resolve the original …

Jerusalem lectures on black holes and quantum information

D Harlow - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2016 - APS
These lectures give an introduction to the quantum physics of black holes, including recent
developments based on quantum information theory such as the firewall paradox and its …

Inconsistency of islands in theories with long-range gravity

H Geng, A Karch, C Perez-Pardavila, S Raju… - Journal of High Energy …, 2022 - Springer
A bstract In ordinary gravitational theories, any local bulk operator in an entanglement
wedge is accompanied by a long-range gravitational dressing that extends to the asymptotic …

Symmetries in quantum field theory and quantum gravity

D Harlow, H Ooguri - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2021 - Springer
In this paper we use the AdS/CFT correspondence to refine and then establish a set of old
conjectures about symmetries in quantum gravity. We first show that any global symmetry …

The black hole interior from non-isometric codes and complexity

C Akers, N Engelhardt, D Harlow, G Penington… - Journal of High Energy …, 2024 - Springer
A bstract Quantum error correction has given us a natural language for the emergence of
spacetime, but the black hole interior poses a challenge for this framework: at late times the …

Microscopic origin of the entropy of black holes in general relativity

V Balasubramanian, A Lawrence, JM Magán… - Physical Review X, 2024 - APS
We construct an infinite family of microstates with geometric interiors for eternal black holes
in general relativity with a negative cosmological constant in any dimension. Wormholes in …

Diving into traversable wormholes

J Maldacena, D Stanford, Z Yang - Fortschritte der Physik, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
We study various aspects of wormholes that are made traversable by an interaction beween
the two asymptotic boundaries. We concentrate on the case of nearly‐gravity and discuss a …

Bulk locality and quantum error correction in AdS/CFT

A Almheiri, X Dong, D Harlow - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015 - Springer
A bstract We point out a connection between the emergence of bulk locality in AdS/CFT and
the theory of quantum error correction. Bulk notions such as Bogoliubov transformations …

Reconstruction of bulk operators within the entanglement wedge in gauge-gravity duality

X Dong, D Harlow, AC Wall - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
In this Letter we prove a simple theorem in quantum information theory, which implies that
bulk operators in the anti–de Sitter/conformal field theory (AdS/CFT) correspondence can be …

Quantum extremal surfaces: holographic entanglement entropy beyond the classical regime

N Engelhardt, AC Wall - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015 - Springer
A bstract We propose that holographic entanglement entropy can be calculated at arbitrary
orders in the bulk Planck constant using the concept of a “quantum extremal surface”: a …
