The gravitational path integral from an observer’s point of view
Abstract
A bstract: One of the fundamental problems in quantum gravity is to describe the experience of a gravitating observer in generic spacetimes. In this paper, we develop a framework for describing non-perturbative physics relative to an observer using the gravitational path integral. We apply our proposal to an observer that lives in a closed universe and one that falls behind a black hole horizon. We find that the Hilbert space that describes the experience of the observer is much larger than the Hilbert space in the absence of an observer. In the case of closed universes, the Hilbert space is not one-dimensional, as calculations in the absence of the observer suggest. Rather, its dimension scales exponentially with $${G}_{N}^{-1}$$ . Similarly, from an observer’s perspective, the dimension of the Hilbert space in a two-sided black hole is increased. We compute various observables probing the experience of a gravitating observer in this Hilbert space. We find that an observer experiences non-trivial physics in the closed universe in contrast to what it would see in a one-dimensional Hilbert space. In the two-sided black hole setting, our proposal implies that non-perturbative corrections to effective field theory for an infalling observer are suppressed until times exponential in the black hole entropy, resolving a recently-raised puzzle in black hole physics. While the framework that we develop is exemplified in the toy-model of JT gravity, most of our analysis can be extended to higher dimensions and, in particular, to generic spacetimes not admitting a conventional holographic description, such as cosmological universes or black hole interiors.

Figures


























![Figure 14 The left-most diagram illustrates how if the observer and particle jump in both at early times, the geodesic slice for the wormhole is shrinking. This leads to a large relative boost between the observer and the particle and a correspondingly high energy collision. If both insertions happen far in the future (center diagram), then the observer and particle experience a growing wormhole length and only a minor collision. In the right-most diagram, we illustrate how the boost symmetry of the thermofield double can be used to move one of the insertions down to T = 0. In this work we choose to fix V at T = 0 on the left and vary the time that the observer jumps in. The above figure is reproduced from Figure 1 of [38].](/paper-figures/7fe7ce7b36df4023a190767070ce162e/the-gravitational-path-integral-from-an-observers-point-of-view-figure-14.png)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
