The Power of Marginal Independence in String Theory

Explore the concept of marginal independence in string theory through this 49-minute conference talk by Veronika Hubeny from UC Davis. Delivered as part of the Spacetime and String Theory conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, delve into cutting-edge perspectives on the nature of spacetime. Examine the connections between quantum information, string compactification, and holographic dualities beyond anti-de Sitter space. Investigate recent progress in non-perturbative string theory, stringy constraints on effective field theory, and the relationships between gravitational path integrals, higher topologies, and entanglement across energy scales. Gain insights into the synthesis of various approaches in string theory, from qubit models of black hole information to the string worldsheet, as researchers aim to bridge the divide between infrared and ultraviolet perspectives.
