Abstract
Studying holographic models of spacetime from a Quantum Information Theoretic point of view has emerged as a fruitful tool for enhancing our understanding of Quantum Gravity.
Very recently, this approach has allowed us to make some progress on the infamous Black Hole Information Paradox -- an apparent contradiction between Einstein's general theory of
relativity and quantum mechanics. An important ingredient in this development are so-called doubly-holographic toy models, which enable us to understand the fate of information during black hole evaporation in a geometric way.
In this talk I will explain what Quantum Information Theory and Double Holography teach us about the fate of information which falls into a black hole and how their interplay offers
opportunities to learn more about the nature of gravity at the quantum scale.
