Analysis

This paper explores a novel construction in the context of AdS/CFT, specifically investigating the holographic duals of a specific type of entanglement in multiple copies of a gauge theory. The authors propose a connection between sums over gauge group representations in matrix models and 'bubbling wormhole' geometries, which are multi-covers of AdS5 x S5. The work contributes to our understanding of the relationship between entanglement, geometry, and gauge theory, potentially offering new insights into black hole physics and quantum gravity.

The holographic duals are ''bubbling wormhole'' geometries: multi-covers of AdS$_5$ $ imes S^5$ whose conformal boundary consists of multiple four-spheres intersecting on a common circle.
