Holographic spacetime, black holes and quantum error correcting codes: a review

T Kibe, P Mandayam, A Mukhopadhyay - The European Physical Journal …, 2022 - Springer
This article reviews the progress in our understanding of the reconstruction of the bulk
spacetime in the holographic correspondence from the dual field theory including an …

Emergent times in holographic duality

S Leutheusser, H Liu - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
In holographic duality an eternal Anti-de Sitter black hole is described by two copies of the
boundary Conformal Field Theory in the thermal field double state. In this paper we provide …

The black hole interior from non-isometric codes and complexity

C Akers, N Engelhardt, D Harlow, G Penington… - Journal of High Energy …, 2024 - Springer
A bstract Quantum error correction has given us a natural language for the emergence of
spacetime, but the black hole interior poses a challenge for this framework: at late times the …

Bulk locality and quantum error correction in AdS/CFT

A Almheiri, X Dong, D Harlow - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015 - Springer
A bstract We point out a connection between the emergence of bulk locality in AdS/CFT and
the theory of quantum error correction. Bulk notions such as Bogoliubov transformations …

Reconstruction of bulk operators within the entanglement wedge in gauge-gravity duality

X Dong, D Harlow, AC Wall - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
In this Letter we prove a simple theorem in quantum information theory, which implies that
bulk operators in the anti–de Sitter/conformal field theory (AdS/CFT) correspondence can be …

Black holes and the butterfly effect

SH Shenker, D Stanford - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2014 - Springer
A bstract We use holography to study sensitive dependence on initial conditions in strongly
coupled field theories. Specifically, we mildly perturb a thermofield double state by adding a …

The Ryu–Takayanagi formula from quantum error correction

D Harlow - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2017 - Springer
I argue that a version of the quantum-corrected Ryu–Takayanagi formula holds in any
quantum error-correcting code. I present this result as a series of theorems of increasing …

An apologia for firewalls

A Almheiri, D Marolf, J Polchinski, D Stanford… - Journal of High Energy …, 2013 - Springer
A bstract We address claimed alternatives to the black hole firewall. We show that
embedding the interior Hilbert space of an old black hole into the Hilbert space of the early …

An infalling observer in AdS/CFT

K Papadodimas, S Raju - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013 - Springer
A bstract We describe the experience of an observer falling into a black hole using the
AdS/CFT correspondence. In order to do this, we reconstruct the local bulk operators …

TASI Lectures on the Emergence of the Bulk in AdS/CFT

D Harlow - arXiv preprint arXiv:1802.01040, 2018 - arxiv.org
These lectures review recent developments in our understanding of the emergence of local
bulk physics in AdS/CFT. The primary topics are sufficient conditions for a conformal field …
