Title:
Supersymmetric wormholes in gravity and SYK

Speaker:
Henry Lin

Abstract:
I will discuss some geometric properties of Einstein-Rosen wormholes joining two extremal black holes. These properties yield predictions for the zero temperature physics of certain supersymmetric quantum mechanical models. For example, the probability that the wormhole is very short is related to the fraction of states in the dual quantum mechanics that are ground states. I will report detailed checks of these properties using the \cal N = 2 SYK model.
