[Physical Review X @PhysRevX]

Researchers used two models to test and validate Brown and Susskind’s second law of #quantum complexity — which describes long-time behavior in chaotic quantum systems and, potentially, #blackhole interiors.

Perfect Christmas present :)Our paper on long time aspects of Brown -Susskind conjecture has been published in @PhysRevX. Technically, we proved that in two models of local random dynamics circuit complexity saturates at exp time and exhibits recurrence after exp^exp time.

@preskill @Caltech great list! i think you got all the classics. also, Mermin's 'Is the moon there when nobody looks' (iirc very similar to QM for anyone?), Wootters and Zurek's No Cloning, Tong's 'Physics and the Integers', and Wilson's Many Length Scales (leniently interpreting quantum science)

@RichardKueng @jkulinz @Wookie_59 awesome! congrats!!

@vk_curt @ThomasVanRiet2 @holographythms indeed, I think the canonical N=2 non-Lagrangian SCFT in 4d has some N=1 Lagrangian descriptions

[nick hunter-jones @nickrhj]

@vk_curt @ThomasVanRiet2 @holographythms my understanding was, and HEP people should correct me if this is wrong or outdated, that when people say non-Lagrangian theory they often mean a theory with no *known* Lagrangian description but for which there are other methods to study it (string constructions, CFT, etc)

@QuantumMemeing please listen HamSim people, you are not contractually obligated to start your talk with this quote

[nick hunter-jones @nickrhj]

@preskill @RobertHuangHY congrats @RobertHuangHY! setting a high bar for both future and former John students :p

[nick hunter-jones @nickrhj]

@ccanonne_ also, would never miss a chance for a @QuantumMemeing shoutout

[Quantum Computing Memes for QMA-Complete Teens @QuantumMemeing]

has anyone tried making a room-temperature quantum computer by simply lowering the temperature of the room to -273C?

[nick hunter-jones @nickrhj]

@ccanonne_ this (april fools) paper beat you to it by a few years. they even made a (small) room!

[Quanta Magazine @QuantaMagazine]

Circuit complexity, a concept that originated in computer science, has been appropriated to help explain the weird and wonderful quantum goings on after a system has reached maximum entropy. https://t.co/w1LZtoe4lR

[John Preskill @preskill]

This clearly written article by @gmusser explains how notions from computational complexity theory have advanced our understanding of quantum gravity and black holes. The video is good, too.

[Quanta Magazine @QuantaMagazine]

Taking inspiration from computer science, the physicists Leonard Susskind and Adam Brown have proposed a new physical law that governs how complexity increases in a quantum world.

@yayitsamyzhang @IlicaMahajan grad students should be offended when they realize how much reporters get paid
