Parafermionizing the Monster
We study the parafermionization of the Monster CFT with respect to its ZpA subgroups, with p an odd prime. Under certain assumptions, we show that the parafermionization is equal to a…

Nonlocal Nonstabilizerness from Holographic Schwinger Pair Production
We analyze the emergence of nonlocal magic in Schwinger pair creation in strong non-Abelian (chromo)electric fields using holography. The produced quark--antiquark pair is entangled into a color…

Integrals of motion in WE6 CFT and the ODE/IM correspondence
We study the ODE/IM correspondence for the ordinary differential equation associated with the affine Lie algebra E6(1). The WKB expansion of the solution of the ODE is performed by the…

Probing of colliding wave spacetimes and a quantum Weyl conjecture
We perform a quantum probing of colliding plane-wave space-times. In particular, we consider the Khan-Penrose and the Ferrari-Ibáñez solutions, which admit a strong and a weak singularity after the…

Grand Canonical vs Canonical Krylov Complexity in Double-Scaled Complex SYK Model
We consider the complex SYK model in the double-scaling limit. We obtain the transfer matrix for the grand canonical ensemble and symmetrize it. In the (n,Q)- basis of chord states, the grand…

Page transition for the complexity of an evaporating black hole
Recent results demonstrate that there exists a sharp, Page-like transition for the complexity of subsystems of Haar-random states as their fractional subsystem size surpasses one half. They further…

AdS Black Holes Are Short-Lived inside the Spectral Form Factor
We analyze the contribution of AdS black hole saddles to the spectral form factor of d-dimensional CFTs with a gravity dual. At high temperatures, the analytically continued gravitational action of…

On the strong coupling limit of Yang-Mills matrix models
We study the strong coupling limit of mass deformed Yang--Mills matrix models, with the aim of understanding when the matrices become effectively commuting. The Yang--Mills interaction classically…

Revealing the conformal symmetry of the discrete series scalars in dS2
On two-dimensional manifolds with nonzero constant Ricci curvature, there exists an infinite sequence of scalar fields with nonzero mass parameter that admit a pair of (anti)-holomorphic currents.…

Aspects of Closed Matricial Worlds
We investigate the Hilbert space structure for simple theories of gravity with Λ>0 on closed spatial sections. Our motivation ties to the presence of gravitational saddles in four-dimensional Λ>0…

A universal scaling function for giant graviton OPE coefficients
We consider the large spin limit S∞ of the OPE coefficient for two maximal giant gravitons and a spinning operator with finite twist in planar N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory. Up to…

Wilson Towers as Local Bulk Fields
Multi-winding Wilson loops (``Wilson spools'') in 2+1-dimensional gravity can reproduce one-loop partition functions of local free fields in the bulk. Bulk free fields have a second-quantized…

High-Order Pole-Skipping in Near-Extremal Holography
We develop a systematic analytic method for studying high-order pole-skipping in near-extremal holographic black holes. In the near-extremal regime, approaching the limit T0, the near-horizon…
