Course Description

Overview

Explore the intricacies of free energy derived from replica wormholes in this 59-minute lecture by Netta Engelhardt from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Delve into topics such as Euclidean signature, nonfactorization, replica tricks, and JTT Gravity. Examine the connection problems, annealed and quenched free energy, Carlson's Theorem, and spin glasses. Investigate symmetry breaking, ensemble interpretation, and the S matrix. Discuss different analytic continuations, phase transitions, and possible ambiguities. Consider the CGHS Hat Model, topologies, and higher dimensions. Engage with questions and discussions throughout the talk, exploring alternative approaches and the search for the right analytic continuation.
