Abstract: I will describe a Hayden & Preskill like setup for both maximally chaotic and submaximally chaotic quantum field theories by acting on the vacuum with an operator in a Rindlerlike wedge R, and transferring a small subregion I of R to the other wedge. The chaotic scramblingdynamics of the QFT Rindler time evolution reveals the information in the other … Read More

Recent developments have led to a breakthrough in our understanding of the evaporation of black holes in very special systems: gravity in a box, coupled to an external bath. To what extend these considerations apply to generic black holes is a point of debate. In this talk we will demonstrate that one of the main ingredients in these calculations, the … Read More
