• Title: Generalized Volume Complexity in Gauss-Bonnet Gravity: Constraints and Phase Transitions
• Authors: Xuanhua Wang, Ran Li, Jin Wang
• Abstract summary: It has been proposed that quantum complexity is dual to the volume of the extremal surface, the action of the Wheeler-DeWitt patch, and the spacetime volume of the patch. A generalized volume-complexity observable was formulated as an equivalently good candidate for the dual holographic complexity. We demonstrate that this proposal guarantees the linear growth of the generalized volume at late times, regardless of the coupling parameters for four-dimensional Gauss-Bonnet gravity.

• Abstract: It has been proposed that quantum complexity is dual to the volume of the extremal surface, the action of the Wheeler-DeWitt patch, and the spacetime volume of the patch. Recently, a generalized volume-complexity observable was formulated as an equivalently good candidate for the dual holographic complexity. This proposal is abbreviated as ``complexity=anything." This proposal offers greater flexibility in selecting extremal surfaces and evaluating physical quantities, e.g., volume or action, on these surfaces. In this study, we explore the 'complexity=anything' proposal for Gauss-Bonnet black holes in asymptotic anti-de Sitter space in various dimensions. We demonstrate that this proposal guarantees the linear growth of the generalized volume at late times, regardless of the coupling parameters for four-dimensional Gauss-Bonnet gravity. However, this universality does not hold for higher dimensions. Moreover, discontinuous deformations of the extremal surfaces emerge when multiple peaks exist in the effective potential, which is reminiscent of a phase transition. Additionally, we present constraints on the coupling parameters of five-dimensional models in order for the generalized volume to be a viable candidate for holographic complexity.

• Krylov spread complexity as holographic complexity beyond JT gravity [0.0]
  One of the important open problems in quantum black hole physics is a dual interpretation of holographic complexity proposals. Our work utilizes the recent connection between double-scaled SYK and sine-dilaton gravity to show that the quantitative relation between Krylov spread complexity and complexity = volume extends to finite temperatures and to full quantum regime on the gravity side at disk level.

  We show that the completeness relation for the eigenvectors, which is an essential assumption of quantum mechanics, remains true if the initial Hamiltonian, having a discrete spectrum, is modified by a delta potential. The formulation can be easily extended to $N$ center case, and the case where delta interaction is supported on curves in the plane or space.

  The percolation transition is defined through the appearance of the infinite cluster. We show that the exponentially increasing dimensionality of the Hilbert space makes its covering by finite-size hyperspheres inefficient. Our approach to the percolation transition in compact metric spaces may prove useful for its rigorous treatment in other contexts.

  Min-max optimization problems arise in several key machine learning setups, including adversarial learning and generative modeling. In this work we focus instead in finding mixed equilibria, and consider the associated lifted problem in the space of probability measures. By adding entropic regularization, our main result establishes global convergence towards the global equilibrium.

  Quantum computing may offer the opportunity to simulate strongly-interacting field theories, such as quantum chromodynamics, with physical time evolution. As with present-day calculations, quantum computation strategies still require the restriction to a finite system size. We quantify the volume effects for various $1+1$D Minkowski-signature quantities and show that these can be a significant source of systematic uncertainty.
