Holographic Pseudo Entropy and Emergent Spacetime

Simons Institute via YouTube

Overview

Explore the concept of holography in string theory and its implications for understanding entanglement entropy in a 51-minute lecture by Tadashi Takayanagi from Kyoto University. Delve into the generalization of the Bekenstein-Hawking formula for black hole entropy and examine how gravitational spacetime may be composed of quantum entanglement bits. Investigate the interpretation of AdS/CFT, focusing on computational complexity and quantum entanglement. Learn about the recently introduced concept of pseudo entropy, its gravity dual, and how it extends our understanding of entanglement entropy. Discover how these ideas contribute to our comprehension of spacetime emergence in gravity, offering new insights into the fundamental nature of our universe.
