Chaotic Quantum Dynamics and the Quantum Geometry of Spacetime

Explore the fascinating connections between chaotic quantum systems and black hole spacetimes in this Stanford Physics colloquium talk by Herman Verlinde from Princeton University. Delve into the challenges of describing accelerating universes quantum mechanically and discover recent progress in linking the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model to quantum de Sitter spacetime in low dimensions. Gain insights into string theory research and its implications for understanding the quantum geometry of spacetime in this 1-hour 18-minute lecture.
