In this paper, we compute the exact form of the bulk geometry emerging from a $(1+1)$-dimensional conformal field theory using the holographic principle. We first consider the $(2+1)$-dimensional asymptotic $AdS$ metric in Poincare…

Gauge/gravity duality posits an equivalence between certain strongly coupled quantum field theories and theories of gravity with negative cosmological constant in a higher number of spacetime dimensions. The map between the degrees of…

The relation between Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) and tensor network is explored from the perspectives of bulk-boundary duality and holographic entanglement entropy. We find that the LQG spin-network states in a space $\Sigma$ with boundary…

Growth of entanglement entropy in time-dependent states formed due to a global quench in holographic conformal field theories which admit an Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet dual gravity description is studied. The global quench in the bulk is…

We investigate the Holographic Entanglement Entropy proposal in the context of the (3+1)-dimensional topological black hole. In contrast to the well-studied (2+1)-dimensional case, the maximal extension for this black hole includes only a…

Boundaries constitute a rich playground for quantum many-body systems because they can lead to novel degrees of freedom such as protected boundary states in topological phases. Here, we study the groundstate of integer quantum Hall systems…

The scattering cross section is the effective area of collision when two particles collide. Quantum mechanically, it is a measure of the probability for a specific process to take place. Employing wave packets to describe the scattering…

We initiate a study of subregion dualities, entropy, and redundant encoding of bulk points in holographic theories deformed by $T \bar T$ and its generalizations. This includes both cut off versions of Anti de Sitter spacetime, as well as…

We propose entanglement entropy as a probe of the architecture of spacetime in quantum gravity. We argue that the leading contribution to this entropy satisfies an area law for any sufficiently large region in a smooth spacetime, which, in…

It is believed that a primary principle of the theory of quantum gravity is the Holographic Principle according to which a physical system can be described only by degrees of freedom living on its boundary. The generalized covariant…

In this paper, we investigate entanglement for causally connected subregions $A$ and $B$ in quantum field theory and holography. Recent developments have established that a transition operator $T_{AB}$ can be well-defined for such…

The entanglement entropy of various geometries is calculated for the boundary theory dual to a stack of N Dp-branes. The entanglement entropies are readily expressed in terms of the effective coupling at the appropriate energy scales. The…

It is shown that a suitably formulated algebraic lightfront holography, in which the lightfront is viewed as the linear extension of the upper causal horizon of a wedge region, is capable of overcoming the shortcomings of the old lightfront…

We use the framework of generalized entanglement wedges to revisit the connected wedge theorem (CWT). This construction identifies an entanglement wedge associated for any bulk region and allows us to rephrase the CWT in terms of the…

We consider classical Euclidean gravity solutions with a boundary. The boundary contains a non-contractible circle. These solutions can be interpreted as computing the trace of a density matrix in the full quantum gravity theory, in the…

The calculation of entanglement entropy S of quantum fields in spacetimes with horizon shows that, quite generically, S (a) is proportional to the area A of the horizon and (b) is divergent. I argue that this divergence, which arises even…

The maximum entropy that can be stored in a bounded region of space is in dispute: it goes as volume, implies (non-gravitational) microphysics; it goes as the surface area, asserts the "holographic principle." Here I show how the…
