Multiple Shocks
read the original abstract
Using gauge/gravity duality, we explore a class of states of two CFTs with a large degree of entanglement, but with very weak local two-sided correlation. These states are constructed by perturbing the thermofield double state with thermal-scale operators that are local at different times. Acting on the dual black hole geometry, these perturbations create an intersecting network of shock waves, supporting a very long wormhole. Chaotic CFT dynamics and the associated fast scrambling time play an essential role in determining the qualitative features of the resulting geometries.

Holographic Banners
Holographic banners are four-argument on-shell actions that map thermofield double boundary states to future interior semiclassical states and yield BKL mixing timescales in AdS black holes.

Stringy Effects on Holographic Complexity: The Complete Volume in Dynamical Spacetimes
Gauss-Bonnet corrections to the complete volume proposal introduce a competition effect in static black holes while preserving momentum-governed growth rates and logarithmic scrambling times in dynamical Vaidya geometries.

Stringy Effects on Holographic Complexity: The Complete Volume in Dynamical Spacetimes
Gauss-Bonnet corrections to the complete volume introduce a competition effect in static cases and prolong the critical time in two-sided shocks while the complexity growth rate stays governed by conserved momentum.
