We argue that quantum gravity is nonlocal, first by recalling well-known arguments that support this idea and then by focusing on a point not usually emphasized: that making a conventional effective field theory (EFT) for quantum gravity is particularly difficult, and perhaps impossible in principle. This inability to realize an EFT comes down to the fact that gravity itself sets length scales for a problem: when integrating out degrees of freedom above some cutoff, the effective metric one uses will be different, which will itself re-define the cutoff. We also point out that even if the previous problem is fixed, naïvely applying EFT in gravity can lead to problems — we give a particular example in the case of black holes.

We discuss a recent proposal that the Euclidean gravity approach to quantum gravity is correct if and only if the theory is holographic, providing several examples and general arguments to support the conjecture. This provides a natural mechanism for the low-energy gravitational effective field theory to access a host of deep ultraviolet properties, like the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy of black holes, the unitarity of black hole evaporation, and the lack of exact global symmetries.

Abstract In this work, we investigate how single-sided and eternal black holes in AdS can host an enormous number of semiclassical excitations in their interior, which is seemingly not reflected in the Bekenstein Hawking entropy. In addition to the paradox in the entropy, we argue that the treatment of such excitations using effective field theory also violates black holes’ expected spectral properties. We propose that these mysteries are resolved because apparently orthogonal semiclassical bulk excitations have small inner products between them; and consequently, a vast number of semiclassical excitations can be constructed using the Hilbert space which describes black hole’s interior. We show that there is no paradox in the dual CFT description and comment upon the initial bulk state, which leads to the paradox. Further, we demonstrate our proposed resolution in the context of small N toy matrix models, where we model the construction of these large number of excitations. We conclude by discussing why this resolution is special to black holes.

Rotating Black Holes

We present a formulation of the stationary bosonic string sector of the whole toroidally compactified effective field theory of the heterotic string as a double Ernst system which, in the framework of general relativity describes, in particular, a pair of interacting spinning black holes; however, in the framework of low-energy string theory the double Ernst system can in particular be interpreted as the rotating field configuration of two interacting sources of black hole type coupled to dilaton and Kalb–Ramond fields. We clarify the rotating character of the Btφ-component of the antisymmetric tensor field of Kalb–Ramond and discuss on its possible torsion nature. We also recall the fact that the double Ernst system possesses a discrete symmetry which is used to relate physically different string vacua. Therefore we apply the normalized Harrison transformation (a charging symmetry which acts on the target space of the low-energy heterotic string theory preserving the asymptotics of the transformed fields and endowing them with multiple electromagnetic charges) on a generic solution of the double Ernst system and compute the generated field configurations for the 4-D effective field theory of the heterotic string. This transformation generates the U (1)n vector field content of the whole low-energy heterotic string spectrum and gives rise to a pair of interacting rotating black holes endowed with dilaton, Kalb–Ramond and multiple electromagnetic fields where the charge vectors are orthogonal to each other.
