Aspects of AdS2 quantum gravity and the Karch-Randall braneworld

Geng, Hao·2022·Journal of High Energy Physics

Abstract

In this paper, we use the Karch-Randall braneworld to study theories of quantum gravity in two dimensional (nearly) anti-de Sitter space (AdS 2). We focus on effective gravitational theories in the setup with two Karch-Randall branes embedded in an asymptotically AdS 3 bulk forming a wedge. We find the appearance of two-dimensional Einstein-Hilbert gravity (or the Lorenzian version of the theory considered by Marolf and Maxfield) when the branes are rigid but the emergence of a class of dilaton gravity models parameterized by the tensions of the two branes when brane fluctuations are accounted for. A special case of our result is Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity, which has been proven useful to address many important problems in quantum gravity. An important implication of our work is that these models have holographic duals as one-dimensional quantum mechanics systems. At the end, we discuss a puzzle regarding the energy spectrum and its resolution.

Figures

Figure 1 An illustration of wedge holography: the bulk geometry is a part of empty AdS d +1 between two end-of-world Karch-Randall branes (black lines), meeting each other on the conformal boundary of AdS d +1 at their common boundary (the red dot). The bulk shaded regions behind the branes are removed, leaving only a wedge in the bulk. Wedge holography states that the gravitational physics in the bulk wedge is dual to a conformal field theory living on the red dot (the defect).

Figure 2 A constantt slice of AdS d +1 foliated by global AdS d slices with two branes present. The defect is shown in red, and various candidate extremal surfaces (in order of decreasing area from left to right) are in green. For each surface, R and I are respectively the radiation region and island, which end orthogonally on both branes. The minimal, zero-area entanglement surface r ( µ ) = 0 is shown on the right as a limit, cutting through the middle of the space.

Figure 5 A typical brane configuration on a constant time t = t 0 slice on different sides of a bulk maximally extended BTZ black hole Equ. (3.12). The red and dark blue dots are the defects on each side and they are in a thermofield double state. The blue lines are the conformal boundary which goes from 0 to 2 π in θ , the black curves are the two Karch-Randall branes, the dashed black horizontal lines are the black hole horizon r = r h and the shaded regions are removed (we assume brane tension positive). The whole geometry should be identified along the two vertical black dashed lines on each diagram. We neglect the parts of the branes behind the black hole horizon which are easily seen to be timelike.

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.
