Path Integral Optimization for $T\bar{T}$ Deformation

Abstract

We use the path integral optimization approach of Caputa, kundu, Miyaji, Takayanagi and Watanabe to find the time slice of geometries dual to vacuum, primary and thermal states in the $T\bar{T}$ deformed two dimensional CFTs. The obtained optimized geometries actually capture the entire bulk which fits well with the integrability and expected UV-completeness of $T\bar{T}$-deformed CFTs. When deformation parameter is positive, these optimized solutions can be reinterpreted as geometries at finite bulk radius, in agreement with a previous proposal by McGough, Mezei and Verlinde. We also calculate the holographic entanglement entropy and quantum state complexity for these solutions. We show that the complexity of formation for the thermofield double state in the deformed theory is UV finite and it depends to the temperature.
