... Abstract:
The AdS/CFT correspondence provides
a quantum theory of gravity in which spacetime
and gravitational physics emerge from
an ordinary non-gravitational quantum
system with many degrees of freedom.
In this talk, I will explain how quantum
entanglement between these degrees
of freedom is crucial for the emergence
of a classical spacetime, and describe
progress in understanding how
spacetime dynamics (gravitation)
arises from the physics of quantum
entanglement.
