Abstract

In this short note AdS/CFT techniques are used to argue that certain smooth supergravity solutions cannot, in fact, be thought of as “good” semiclassical states as they suffer from macroscopic quantum fluctuations. Such a breakdown of effective field theory intuition is a potentially quite important in resolving information loss.
