My primary research interests include quantum gravity and quantum information, in particular, measurements and observers in holography and operational aspects of quantum and classical correlations in quantum circuits, many-body systems, and quantum field theories. I particularly enjoy collaborating with people in various fields including field theories, quantum matter, quantum information/communication/foundation/cryptography, and quantum cosmologists.

But my research interests have changed a lot since I was born. I was interested in phonetics in the study of linguistics when I was in a high school and undergraduate student. During my third year of BSc., I was interested in biophysics and quantum information. During my final year of BSc., I started to be illuminated by string theory. During my Ph.D., I was more attracted by interdisciplinary studies among quantum field theories, tensor networks, and AdS/CFT.

Please see the following list (updated occasionally). Check Inspire HEP, arXiv, and Google Scholar for my latest publications.

1. K. Louisia, T. Mori and H. Warner, "Zoo of Correlation Inequalities in Holography and Beyond," arXiv:2511.21870 [hep-th]. Confirmed various information theoretic properties both in the bulk and boundary based on the conjectured duality on classical and quantum correlations, which involve multiple entanglement wedge cross sections. Established a mathematically rigorous, homological framework for the proofs.

2. T. Mori and B. Yoshida, "Baby universe as logical qubits: information recovery in random encoding," arXiv:2511.20747 [hep-th]. Using Haar random toy model, discussed that tripartite entanglement structure (not of GHZ-type) leads to an emergence of a baby universe from the boundary perspective, without necessitating one-dimensionality or physical observers. Furthermore, we argue the baby universe information cannot be cloned thanks to the breakdown of complementary recovery, which can be interpreted as a realization of complementarity, and its dynamics is frozen until exponentially late time due to a random encoding.

3. Z. Khanian, D. Lee, D. Leung, Z. Li, A. May, T. Mori, S. Miao, F. Salek, J. Yi and B. Yoshida, "Entanglement sharing schemes," arXiv:2509.21462 [quant-ph] (Accepted to QIP 2026). Extended quantum secret sharing to cases aiming to share entanglement. Investigated various bounds on sharing entanglement between known or unknown parties, which is a fundamental problem in quantum cryptography.

4. T. Mori, “Quantum correlation beyond entanglement: Holographic discord and multipartite generalizations,” arXiv:2506.02131 [hep-th]. Proposed bulk duals of classical correlation and quantum discord. Holographic discord is shown to be larger than holographic squashed entanglement. The gap, called the non-entanglement quantum correlation, is related to the Markov gap and undistillable entanglement, indicating non-bipartiteness of holographic states is generic. Efficiently computable boundary duals based on reflected entropy are also proposed and demonstrated with two-qubit states. Multipartite generalizations of these correlation measures are discussed.

5. Z. Li, T. Mori, and B. Yoshida, "Tripartite Haar random state has no bipartite entanglement," arXiv:2502.04437 [quant-ph]. Provided a rigorous quantum information theoretic proof regarding the distillable entanglement of tripartite Haar random states. Using the so-called ϵ-net construction and Levy’s lemma, the probability of sampling a tripartite pure state whose entanglement is distillable by local operation according to the Haar measure is suppressed double exponentially with respect to the number of qubits.

6. T. Mori and B. Yoshida, "Does connected wedge imply distillable entanglement?," JHEP 01, 125 (2026) [arXiv:2411.03426 [hep-th]]. Proposed gravity duals of one-shot distillable entanglement and entanglement of formation in holography and Haar random states. Explicit distillation protocols are provided and random/holographic states are conjectured to be NPT bound entangled at leading order.

7. V. Franken and T. Mori, "Horizon causality from holographic scattering in asymptotically dS₃," JHEP 12, 199 (2024) [arXiv:2410.09050]. Identified consistent causality on holographic screens in static patch holography of asymptotically de Sitter spacetimes through induced causality concept, hinting at temporal mapping between static patch holography and dS/CFT.

8. R.N. Das and T. Mori, "Krylov complexity of purification," Phys. Rev. Lett. 136, no.3, 030201 (2026) [arXiv:2408.00826 [hep-th]]. Proposed Krylov complexity of purification (CoP) method for mixed states, conjecturing properties/inequalities between original complexity and CoPs. Applied to non-unitary dynamics and compared to Lloyd bound/holographic results.

9. T. Mori, "Entanglement structure in quantum many-body systems, field theories, and holography," arXiv:2308.09758 [hep-th]. Comprehensive review of entanglement in field theories/holography/tensor networks (Ph.D. thesis).

10. T. Mori and B. Yoshida, "Exploring causality in braneworld/cutoff holography via holographic scattering," JHEP 10, 104 (2023) [arXiv:2308.00739]. Generalized connected wedge theorem to AdS spacetimes with branes/cutoffs, explaining apparent superluminality through induced light cones and fictitious regions.

11. T. Mori, H. Manabe and H. Matsueda, "Entanglement distillation toward minimal bond cut surface in tensor networks," Phys. Rev. D 106, 086008 (2022) [arXiv:2205.06633]. Revealed bond-cut surface changes as entanglement distillation, showing minimal surfaces define closest states to maximally entangled states in generic tensor networks.

12. T. Kawamoto et al., "Holographic local operator quenches in BCFTs," JHEP 05, 060 (2022) [arXiv:2203.03851]. Established correspondence between boundary conformal field theories and gravity duals under local operator quenches.

13. S. Iso, T. Mori and K. Sakai, "Wilsonian Effective Action and Entanglement Entropy," Symmetry 13, 1221 (2021) [arXiv:2105.14834]. Developed framework for vacuum entanglement entropy in interacting QFTs, analytically deriving area laws through Wilsonian RG.

14. S. Iso, T. Mori and K. Sakai, "Non-Gaussianity of entanglement entropy and correlations of composite operators," Phys. Rev. D 103, 125019 (2021) [arXiv:2105.02598]. Summed propagator/vertex contributions to entanglement entropy via renormalized propagators in interacting QFTs.

15. S. Iso, T. Mori and K. Sakai, "Entanglement entropy in scalar field theory and ℤₘ gauge theory on Feynman diagrams," Phys. Rev. D 103, 105010 (2021) [arXiv:2103.05303]. Formulated nonperturbative calculation method for entanglement entropy, identifying new non-Gaussian vertex contributions.

16. T. Mori, "Proposal for Power/Data Transmission Lines Using Natural Spider Silk/Carbon Nanotube" (2015) [Award-winning paper]. Designed hybrid transmission wires combining spider silk and carbon nanotubes for simultaneous power/data transfer.
