Time evolution of entanglement entropy from black hole interiors
- Thomas Hartman, J. Maldacena
- Physics, Geology
- 5 March 2013
A bstractWe compute the time-dependent entanglement entropy of a CFT which starts in relatively simple initial states. The initial states are the thermofield double for thermal states, dual to…
Kerr/CFT Correspondence

Quantum gravity in the region very near the horizon of an extreme Kerr black hole (whose angular momentum and mass are related by J=GM{sup 2}) is considered. It is shown that consistent boundary…
Entanglement Entropy at Large Central Charge
- Thomas Hartman
- Physics
- 27 March 2013
Two-dimensional conformal field theories with a large central charge and a small number of low-dimension operators are studied using the conformal block expansion. A universal formula is derived for…
Warped Conformal Field Theory
- S. Detournay, Thomas Hartman, D. Hofman
- Physics
- 1 October 2012
We study field theories in two spacetime dimensions invariant under a chiral scaling symmetry that acts only on right-movers. The local symmetries include one copy of the Virasoro algebra and a U(1)…
Universal spectrum of 2d conformal field theory in the large c limit
- Thomas Hartman, C. Keller, Bogdan Stoica
- Physics
- 20 May 2014
A bstractTwo-dimensional conformal field theories exhibit a universal free energy in the high temperature limit T → ∞, and a universal spectrum in the Cardy regime, Δ → ∞. We show that a much…
Gravitation from entanglement in holographic CFTs
- T. Faulkner, Monica Guica, Thomas Hartman, R. Myers, M. Raamsdonk
- Physics
- 30 December 2013
A bstractEntanglement entropy obeys a ‘first law’, an exact quantum generalization of the ordinary first law of thermodynamics. In any CFT with a semiclassical holographic dual, this first law has an…
Replica wormholes and the entropy of Hawking radiation

- 27 November 2019
The information paradox can be realized in anti-de Sitter spacetime joined to a Minkowski region. In this setting, we show that the large discrepancy between the von Neumann entropy as calculated by…
Symmetries of holographic minimal models
- M. Gaberdiel, Thomas Hartman
- Mathematics
- 14 January 2011
It was recently proposed that a large N limit of a family of minimal model CFTs is dual to a certain higher spin gravity theory in AdS3, where the ’t Hooft coupling constant of the CFT is related to…
Holographic entanglement entropy from 2d CFT: heavy states and local quenches
- Curtis T. Asplund, A. Bernamonti, F. Galli, Thomas Hartman
- Physics
- 6 October 2014
A bstractWe consider the entanglement entropy in 2d conformal field theory in a class of excited states produced by the insertion of a heavy local operator. These include both high-energy eigenstates…
CFT Duals for Extreme Black Holes
- Thomas Hartman, Keiju Murata, T. Nishioka, A. Strominger
- Physics
- 26 November 2008
It is argued that the general four-dimensional extremal Kerr-Newman-AdS-dS black hole is holographically dual to a (chiral half of a) two-dimensional CFT, generalizing an argument given recently for…
