Here is a link the the original Maldacena-Susskind 48 page paper http://arxiv.org/abs/1306.0533. But if that is a bit much here is a seemingly accurate summary http://news.sciencemag.org/physics/2013/12/link-between-wormholes-and-quantum-entanglementincluding some follow on work. Most of the popular write-ups describing ER=EPR by tech writers are plainly inaccurate.
