Abstract

We generalize the work of Kabat and Lifshytz (arXiv:1703.06523), of reconstructing bulk scalar fields using the intersecting modular hamiltonian approach discussed therein, to any locally AdS3AdS_3 space related to AdS3AdS_3 by large diffeomorphisms. We present several checks for our result including matcing with their result in appropriate limits as well as consistency with bulk diffeomorphisms. As a further check, from our expressions we also compute the first correction due to gravitational dressing to the bulk scalar field in AdS3AdS_3 and match with known results in the literature.
