Santa Barbara's David Berenstein as well as his pupil Alexandra Miller published a paper
Topology as well as geometry cannot hold upward measured yesteryear an operator measuring inwards quantum gravity
which is overnice because they possess got used the LLM boundary of Maldacena's AdS/CFT correspondence to rediscover something that the TRF readers know from almost 10 spider web log posts as well as that has been refined into a to a greater extent than controllable newspaper shape yesteryear Papadodimas as well as Raju. There can't hold upward whatever linear operators inwards a theory of quantum gravity whose eigenvalues would check to the topological invariants of the space. I intend that the describing word "state-independent" should hold upward added to the judgement to acquire into truly truthful – Berenstein as well as Miller implicitly utter almost state-independent operators when they utter almost operators.

LLM refers to Lin, Lunin, Maldacena – it's the bubbling AdS space – as well as this aspect of the Berenstein-Miller newspaper is new. If yous click at the hyperlink, yous volition hold upward brought to a Jan 2005 spider web log post service almost LLM. The engagement should assure yous that TRF is quite an ancient rootage of data almost physics.




The LLM structure allows yous to discovery a bubbling AdS-style geometry for whatever moving painting where yous carve upward a bird to a dark share as well as the white region. The simplest separation is 2 half-planes, lower as well as upper, but fifty-fifty if yous brand the boundary wiggly as well as add together dark bubbles to the white share or vice versa, at that spot is all the same only about solution.




Berenstein as well as Miller hash out this laid of states inwards the \(N\to\infty\) boundary of AdS/CFT. They discovery out that all the coherent states may hold upward identified amongst picayune topologies. But they are overcomplete equally a would-be footing as well as fifty-fifty states that check to the spacetime of a dissimilar topology may hold upward obtained equally superpositions.

While the usage of LLM is novel (although I haven't quite understood why this special lawsuit helps), the determination is just the same equally 1 inwards many TRF spider web log posts as well as a newspaper yesteryear here). On Page 3, yous volition encounter an announcement
We acquaint only about testify that it is this overcompleteness that prevents the existence of state-independent operators behind the horizon.
that refers to my August 2013 argument amongst the same determination equally an before derivation of that kind. Raju's as well as Papadodimas' detailed handling of the proof is described inwards Appendix H5N1 which starts on Page 117. The fact that at that spot can't hold upward whatever linear operators for topology was discussed previously, e.g. inwards June 2013 inwards the context of ER=EPR.

There are numerous spider web log posts that hash out a regulation that is equivalent to it or slightly to a greater extent than general, the "background indifference". The regulation states that inwards a consistent theory of quantum gravity, yous may basically select whatever (?) geometric background amongst whatever topology (but the correct conduct at infinity, the same superselection sector), as well as depict the Hilbert infinite equally excitations of that background.

For years, I haven't depended on existence cited as well as hence those credit issues aren't an number for me anymore as well as I am truly rattling happy that at that spot are people who are reaching similar conclusions that I discovery to a greater extent than of import than who gets credit for them. However, I intend it's unfortunate that people similar Berenstein (plus Miller), Raju, as well as Papadodimas who are doing truly serious enquiry inwards quantum gravity aren't reading papers of each other (at to the lowest degree inwards 1 direction). If they as well as others listened to me, I would hold upward educate to create a listing of meridian twenty folks inwards this job organisation who are obliged to read (at to the lowest degree quickly) all novel papers yesteryear the authors from the same list. What the people who are verifiably exterior my listing make isn't also important.

Moreover, Raju gave a utter amongst this declaration somewhere, referring to me as well as Susskind. Wasn't it truly inwards Santa Barbara? If it were inwards Santa Barbara, it's somewhat embarrassing that David has missed the talk. But perchance also many events possess got house inwards Santa Barbara that are dedicated to the overcompleteness of coherent states as well as why it implies that at that spot are no state-independent operators for topology as well as geometry inwards a consistent theory of quantum gravity. ;-)

Update: No, it was Raju's utter at Strings 2014 (video, banking concern check 24:35-26:00, where Suvrat bravely as well as kindly insists that my spider web log post service was overnice afterward only about laughter inwards the hall – only travail to appreciate how many pests I would possess got to human face upward fifty-fifty at string conferences LOL) inwards Princeton. Still a venue a researcher into nearly identical questions isn't supposed to overlook, I think.



Off-topic things:

I was happy to acquire that Frank Wilczek's favorite discussion was both invented as well as repeatedly brought to exercise inwards Prague. His favorite discussion is "defenestration". As Wikipedia mentions, defenestration defines the expert Bohemian style (at to the lowest degree it's truthful for the events inwards 1419 as well as on May 23rd, 1618 (U.S. reconstruction, Czech cartoon) – nosotros possess got an anniversary today) but inwards 2 hours, they may bask the methodology inwards Austria, too. ;-)

Here is the Nobel prize winner's paper (backup; shortly to appear inwards Physical Review Letters) explaining why "defenestration" is the best discussion inwards the world.

Bizarre Twitter popularity

The most retweeted as well as liked tweet of mine inwards a long fourth dimension was this slice of dark humor making fun of the fact that the fellow member of European Parliament whom I got to the office, Petr Mach, has the same surname equally a schoolkid who appeared amongst his classmate Ms Šebestová inwards a famous Czech cartoon almost schoolchildren amongst a magic telephone receiver as well as their puppy Jonathan. Mach, the MEP, was truly distressing that Adolf Born, the virile someone nurture of the cartoon, died yesterday. I am also distressing but I haven't met Born inwards person, if I think well. At whatever rate, I replied to Mach that my condolences acquire mainly to him as well as Ms Šebestová as well as people retweet it similar mad.



An ecoterrorist pretending to hold upward "independent" is claimed to possess got beaten Norbert Hofer yesteryear 3,000 votes inwards Austrian presidential elections. It's non my job organisation but I am suspicious almost the bigger-than-expected divergence betwixt the the results from the regular votes (48-to-52) as well as the absentee ballots (60-to-40). Austrian Greens were similarly lucky (?) inwards 1978 when 50.47% was plenty to kill their alone nuclear ability constitute inwards Zwentendorf.
