Spacetime, Quantum Entanglement and Black Holes - Almheiri, Penington, Sachdev, Maldacena

Public Lecture Topic: Spacetime, Quantum Entanglement and Black Holes Speakers: Ahmed Almheiri, Geoff Penington, Subir Sachdev and Juan Maldacena Affiliation: Institute for Advanced Study Date: May 06, 2022 Modern theoretical investigations into the nature of spacetime are revealing that quantum entanglement plays a crucial role for resolving several long standing puzzles. Black holes have been central to these investigations. Quantum models for black holes are bridging boundaries between different fields of physics, from quantum gravity, to condensed matter, to quantum computation. Four IAS researchers will present different aspects of these fascinating connections.
