Non-Gaussianities in the statistical distribution of heavy OPE coefficients and wormholes

Belin, Alexandre, de Boer, Jan, Liska, Diego·2022·Journal of High Energy Physics

Abstract

The Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis makes a prediction for the statistical distribution of matrix elements of simple operators in energy eigenstates of chaotic quantum systems. As a leading approximation, off-diagonal matrix elements are described by Gaussian random variables but higher-point correlation functions enforce non-Gaussian corrections which are further exponentially suppressed in the entropy. In this paper, we investigate non- Gaussian corrections to the statistical distribution of heavy-heavy-heavy OPE coefficients in chaotic two-dimensional conformal field theories. Using the Virasoro crossing kernels, we provide asymptotic formulas involving arbitrary numbers of OPE coefficients from modular invariance on genus-g surfaces. We find that the non-Gaussianities are further exponentially suppressed in the entropy, much like the ETH. We discuss the implication of these results for products of CFT partition functions in gravity and Euclidean wormholes. Our results suggest that there are new connected wormhole geometries that dominate over the genus-two wormhole.

Figure 4 The crossing kernels relating the different pair-of-pants decompositions or channels of the genus-three Riemann surface. From left to right the names of these channels are: skyline, sunset, necklace, and comb. The trivalent graphs associated to each decomposition are shown below each surface. Note that the fusion kernel may change the topology of the graph while the modular kernel always leaves the diagram invariant.

Figure 11 Analytic structure of the integrand in the fusion kernel with s = σP s and P s → ∞ . There are eight semi-infinite lines of poles extending to the left and to the right of the integration contour. These families of poles are represented in the plot by black wavy lines. In this example, several of these families overlap so only four wavy lines appear in the image. The dotted line is the integration contour we use to compute the asymptotics of the integral. In the diagram, lighter shading corresponds to a larger absolute value of the integrand in each section.

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.
