DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Albert Law (Stanford University)\n\nDiscrepancies be
 tween Lorentzian and Euclidean calculations of quantum corrections to de S
 itter horizon thermodynamics revealed the existence of ‘edge’ degrees 
 of freedom on the horizon. In this talk\, I will review these calculations
  and present updates on understanding the physics of such edge modes in bo
 th gauge theories and (higher-spin) gravity. For Einstein gravity\, I will
  discuss a plausible interpretation involving an embedded spherical brane.
  Finally\, I will comment on how these ideas extend to more general black 
 hole spacetimes.\n\nhttps://events.perimeterinstitute.ca/event/1163/
