TLDR
A simple theorem in quantum information theory is proved, which implies that bulk operators in the anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory (AdS/CFT) correspondence can be reconstructed as CFT operators in a spatial subregion A, provided that they lie in its entanglement wedge.
Abstract
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 reconstructed as CFT operators in a spatial subregion A, provided that they lie in its entanglement wedge. This is an improvement on existing reconstruction methods, which have at most succeeded in the smaller causal wedge. The proof is a combination of the recent work of Jafferis, Lewkowycz, Maldacena, and Suh on the quantum relative entropy of a CFT subregion with earlier ideas interpreting the correspondence as a quantum error correcting code.

Quantum error correction in SYK and bulk emergence

TL;DR: In this article , the error correcting properties of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model with errors that correspond to erasures of subsets of fermions are analyzed. And the price of the quantum error correcting code, defined as the number of physical qubits needed to reconstruct whether a given operator has been acted upon the thermal state or not, is derived.

Breakdown of locality in quantum gravity

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the black hole information or firewall paradox and showed that the constraints of causality may prevent an observer from identifying a conflict, and then they introduced a toy model that allows one to explicitly localize information on the boundary, using either gauge freedom or ideas from quantum error correction.

Emergent dark gravity from (non)holographic screens.

TL;DR: In this article, a modified holographic screen scenario is presented, where the screen fails to encode an emergent mass in the bulk "unemerged" part of space for sufficiently large length-scales where the volume-law of the non-holographic bulk degrees of freedom overtakes the area-law scaling of the screen.

Gauge Theory Correlators from Non-Critical String Theory

TL;DR: In this paper, a boundary of the anti-deSitter space analogous to a cut-off on the Liouville coordinate of the two-dimensional string theory is introduced to obtain certain Green's functions in 3+1-dimensional N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with a large number of colors via non-critical string theory.

Anti de sitter space and holography

TL;DR: In this article, a correspondence between conformal field theory observables and those of supergravity was proposed, where correlation functions in conformal fields are given by the dependence of the supergravity action on the asymptotic behavior at infinity.

Holographic Derivation of Entanglement Entropy from the anti de Sitter Space/Conformal Field Theory Correspondence

TL;DR: It is argued that the entanglement entropy in d + 1 dimensional conformal field theories can be obtained from the area of d dimensional minimal surfaces in AdS(d+2), analogous to the Bekenstein-Hawking formula for black hole entropy.
