Quantum mechanics and geometry of spacetime

Quantum mechanics and geometry of spacetime

About / Description

Black holes are fascinating objects which pose interesting puzzles for quantum physics. Studying these puzzles we are led to quantum mechanical models that describe special black holes as seen from the outside. Extrapolating from these descriptions we are lead to the idea that entanglement can create geometric connections or wormholes. Moreover, quantum teleportation can be interpreted as travelling through the wormhole. Speaker: Juan Maldacena (Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton, NJ, USA)
