① Introduction

Motivation 1 What is the basic mechanism of AdS/CFT ? ⇒ One intriguing idea is the conjectured interpretation of AdS/CFT as tensor networks (TNs).

Tensor Network = Network of Quantum entanglement

A Basic Key Idea: Tensor Network of MERA = a time slice of AdS space

[Perfect TN: Pastawski-Yoshida-Harlow-Preskill 15] [Random TN: Hayden-Nezami-Qi-Thomas-Walter-Yang 16]

Questions [see e.g. Beny 2011, Bao et.al. 2015, Czech et.al. 2015] (a) Special Conformal invariance ? (b) Non-isotropic tensors ? (EW is not properly realized) (c) Why the EE bound is saturated ? (d) How to derive Einstein eq. ? (Sub AdS Scale Locality) Recent developments in lattice models

・Improved TN models: ⇒(a),(b),(c) ⇒Refer also to Arpan Bhattacharrya’s talk

slide-9
SLIDE 9

Some of these problems may be due to lattice artifacts. Moreover, we want to eventually understand the genuine AdS/CFT in the continuum limit. We propose a new alternative approach based on path-integrals, related to a continuum limit of TNs.

Our guiding principle 1

Eliminating unnecessary tensors in TN for a given state = Creating the most efficient TN (= Optimization of TN) Solving the dynamics of Gravity (Einstein eq. etc.)

Recently, holographic formulas of complexity have been proposed and actively studied: (i) Complexity = Max. volume in AdS

[Stanford-Susskind 14]

(ii) Complexity= Gravity action in WDW patch

[Brown-Roberts-Susskind-Swingle-Zhao 15]

(iii) Information Metric = Max. volume in AdS

[Miyaji-Numasawa-Shiba-Watanabe-TT 15]

For tensor network descriptions, Complexity = Min [# of Tensors] in TN

② AdS from Optimization of Path-Integrals

(2-1) Formulation A Basic Rule: Simplify a path-integral s.t. it produces the correct UV wave functional.

Consider 2D CFTs for simplicity. ( z=- Euclidean time, x=space) Deformation of discretizations in path-integral = Curved metric such that one cell (bit) = unit length. Note: The original flat metric is given by (ε is UV cutoff):

④ Conclusions

  • We introduced ``path-integral complexity’’ of a given state,

which measures complexity of the corresponding TN.

  • We find Complexity = Liouville action for 2d CFTs.

An optimization of path-integral of a CFT state = Minimizing the complexity ⇔ a time slice of AdS

  • We have generalizations to higher dim. CFTs.

⇒ A factor mismatch with ``Complexity = Gravity Action’’ proposal. Future Problems

Massive QFTs [Bhattacharrya-Caputa-Das-Kundu-Miyaji-TT, work in progress]

Time dependent states ?, Sub AdS locality ?, dS/CFT ? [For details, refer to Kento Watanabe’s poster]
