abstract:

I review the emergence of JT gravity from the SYK model, and the calculation of correlation functions in JT gravity. I motivate the need for a new observable distinct from entanglement entropy to fully decode emergent gravity, and propose as such an observable a quantum generalization of the entropy of multiple measurements on a dynamical system.
