Title:
Pure states, black hole formation and Choptuik transition in the SYK model

Speaker:
Spenta Wadia

Abstract:
We discuss the evolution of pure states through two quences in the SYK Model. The first quench pumps energy out of the system. In the bulk dual this corresponds to starting with a black hole spacetime and beyond a critical perturbation the geometry horizon disappears. The second quench pumps energy into the system and one observes the formation of a horizon asymptotically in time. This black hole temperature has a Choptuik like scaling form with exponent 1/2.
