Abstract: In recent years, the deep connection between quantum information and quantum gravity has been revealed, most of which have focused on the holographic entanglement entropy. However there are some renew interests on the study of another important concept from quantum information---quantum complexity, which finally finds its role in the bulk gravity through the so-called Complexity=Action duality that was conjectured recently by Susskind et.al. After a brief introduction of this conjecture, I will talk about our recent work concerned about its refinement.
