Entanglement and Emergence of Gravitational Spacetime - Lecture 1

International Centre for Theoretical Sciences via YouTube

Overview

Explore the fascinating intersection of quantum entanglement and gravitational spacetime in this lecture by Professor Tadashi Takayanagi from the Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics at Kyoto University. Delve into recent developments in the interpretation of gravitational spacetime through the lens of quantum entanglement, drawing insights from string theory's holography concept. Discover how this approach generalizes the Bekenstein-Hawking formula for black hole entropy and suggests that gravitational spacetime is composed of entangled qubits. Learn about recent progress in addressing the black hole information problem and new perspectives on holography for de Sitter spaces from quantum information viewpoints. Gain valuable insights into the cutting-edge research connecting quantum information theory, quantum field theory, and gravity.
