Complexity and typical microstates (2019)
Journal Article
Ross, S. F. (2019). Complexity and typical microstates. Physical Review D, 100(6), Article 066014. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.100.066014

Typical black hole microstates in AdS=CFT were recently conjectured to have a geometrical dual with a smooth horizon and a portion of a second asymptotic region. I consider the application of the holographic complexity conjectures to this geometry. T... Read More about Complexity and typical microstates.

Generalized Gibbs ensemble and the statistics of KdV charges in 2D CFT (2019)
Journal Article
Maloney, A., Ng, G. S., Ross, S. F., & Tsiares, I. (2019). Generalized Gibbs ensemble and the statistics of KdV charges in 2D CFT. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019(3), Article 75. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep03%282019%29075

Two-dimensional CFTs have an infinite set of commuting conserved charges, known as the quantum KdV charges. We study the Generalized Gibbs Ensemble with chemical potentials for these charges at high temperature. In a large central charge limit, the p...

Two dimensional CFTs have an infinite set of commuting conserved charges, known as the quantum KdV charges, built out of the stress tensor.

We consider the holographic complexity conjectures in the context of the AdS soliton, which is the holographic dual of the ground state of a field theory on a torus with antiperiodic boundary conditions for fermions on one cycle. The complexity is a... Read More about Complexity of the AdS soliton.

Entanglement shadows in LLM geometries (2017)
Journal Article

We find a new example of an asymptotically AdS5 × S5 geometry which has an entanglement shadow: that is, a region of spacetime which no Ryu-Takayanagi minimal surface enters. Our example is a particular case of the supersymmetric LLM geometries. Our... Read More about Entanglement shadows in LLM geometries.

We consider the holographic complexity conjectures for de-Sitter invariant states in a quantum field theory on de Sitter space, dual to asymptotically anti-de Sitter geometries with de Sitter boundaries. The bulk holographic duals include solutions w... Read More about Complexity in de Sitter space.

We study the entanglement structure of states dual to multiboundary wormhole geometries using tensor network models. Perfect and random tensor networks tiling the hyperbolic plane have been shown to provide good models of the entanglement structure i...

We study the UV divergences in the action of the 'Wheeler-de Witt patch' in asymptotically AdS spacetimes, which has been conjectured to be dual to the computational complexity of the state of the dual field theory on a spatial slice of the boundary....

We explore the butterfly effect for black holes with rotation or charge. We perturb rotating BTZ and charged black holes in 2 + 1 dimensions by adding a small perturbation on one asymptotic region, described by a shock wave in the spacetime, and expl...

We consider the holographic computation of two-dimensional conformal field theory partition functions on non-orientable surfaces.
