Abstract:
In the infrared limit, a nearly anti-de Sitter spacetime in two dimensions (AdS_{2}) perturbed by a weak double trace deformation and a two-site (q>2)-body Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model with N Majoranas and a weak 2r-body intersite coupling share the same near-conformal dynamics described by a traversable wormhole. We exploit this relation to propose a symmetry classification of traversable wormholes depending on N, q, and r, with q>2r, and confirm it by a level statistics analysis using exact diagonalization techniques. Intriguingly, a time-reversed state never results in a new state, so only six universality classes occur-A, AI, BDI, CI, C, and D-and different symmetry sectors of the model may belong to distinct universality classes.

This has been verified in many experiments. However, space and time are no longer absolute. Two observers moving relative to one another do not agree on the length of objects or the passage of time. The mechanics of objects based on Newton's laws of...
Schwarzschild Radius and Event Horizon
The minimum speed required to launch a projectile from the surface of an object to which it is gravitationally bound so that it eventually escapes the object’s gravitational field is called the escape velocity. The escape velocity is independent of the mass of the object. Merging the idea of escape...
