About Me | 关于我

I am Jiayue Yang, a PhD student in Applied Mathematics at the University of Waterloo, Canada, and an Associate Graduate Student at both the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics (PI) and the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC). My research focuses on the intersection of quantum information and quantum gravity.

🎓 Education

🔬 Research Interests

🌟 Research Highlights

My research covers a broad range of topics, including black hole thermodynamics, holographic quantum information, relativistic quantum information, wormhole solutions, and analogue black holes.

Research | 研究

Finite-cutoff Holographic Thermodynamics

Ming Zhang, Wen-Di Tan, Mengqi Lu, Dyuman Bhattacharya, Yang, J., et al. arXiv (2025). arXiv: 2507.01010 [hep-th] [pdf]

Develops a framework for holographic thermodynamics in finite-cutoff holography, coupling a finite radial cutoff in AdS to a boundary T^2-deformed CFT and formulating consistent first laws/energetics.

Critical Slowing Down of Black Hole Phase Transition and Kinetic Crossover in Supercritical Regime

Ran Li, Kun Zhang, Yang, J., Robert B. Mann, Jin Wang. Physical Review D 112 (2025) 6, 064004. DOI: 10.1103/z8bq-kvq3

Shows pronounced critical slowing down near spinodal/critical points in RN–AdS black holes and identifies a kinetic Widom line in the supercritical regime matching the thermodynamic one.

On Thermodynamics of Charged and Accelerating Black Holes

Hale, T., Kubizňák, D., Menšíková, J., Mann, R. B., Yang, J.. Physical Review D 111 (2025) 104004. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevD.111.104004

Revisits the thermodynamics of charged slowly accelerating AdS black holes, clarifying key normalization and action issues.

Smart Holes: Analogue Black Holes with the Right Temperature and Entropy

Yang, J., Afshordi, N., Torabian, M., Jafari, S. A., Baskaran, G. Journal of High Energy Physics (JHEP) 07 (2025) 226. DOI: 10.1007/JHEP07(2025)226

Proposes “smart holes,” analogue black holes that match both temperature and entropy of GR black holes.

Existence of Vacuum Wormholes in Einsteinian Cubic Gravity

Lu, M., Yang, J., Mann, R. B. Journal of High Energy Physics (JHEP) 03 (2025) 073. DOI: 10.1007/JHEP03(2025)073

Discovers vacuum wormhole solutions in Einsteinian Cubic Gravity without exotic matter and verifies traversability.

Gravitational Wormholes

Lu, M., Yang, J., Mann, R. B. Universe 10(6), 257 (2024). DOI: 10.3390/universe10060257

Invited paper for gravitational wormholes, with emphasis on higher-curvature theories.

Complexity, Scaling, and a Phase Transition 🔗 Poster 🎤 Talk

Yang, J., Frey, A. R. Journal of High Energy Physics (JHEP) 09 (2023) 029. DOI: 10.1007/JHEP09(2023)029

Shows that holographic complexity on a circle acts as an order parameter and obeys a scaling relation.

Dynamic Behaviours of Black Hole Phase Transitions Near Quadruple Points 🎤 Talk

Yang, J., Mann, R. B. Journal of High Energy Physics (JHEP) 08 (2023) 028. DOI: 10.1007/JHEP08(2023)028

First study of dynamics near black hole quadruple points, revealing rich oscillatory phenomena.
