The bulk reconstructions in AdS/CFT and its cousins are essential to understand the holographic nature of quantum gravity. In this work, we try to study the bulk reconstruction in the AdS$_3$/WCFT$_2$ correspondence. After deriving the…

In this work we present a "modest" holographic reconstruction of the bulk geometry in asymptotically flat spacetime using the two-point correlators of boundary quantum field theory (QFT) in asymptotically flat spacetime. The boundary QFT…

The flat/CFT dictionary between the bulk gravitational theory and boundary conformal field theory is systematically developed in this paper. Asymptotically flat spacetime is built up by asymptotically AdS hyperboloid slices in terms of…

Most of the literature in the \emph{bulk reconstruction program} in holography focuses on recovering local bulk operators propagating on a quasilocal bulk geometry and the knowledge of the bulk geometry is always assumed or guessed. The…

We explore the reconstruction of bulk local states in three-dimensional flat spacetime (Flat$_3$) using states from two-dimensional Carrollian conformal field theories (CCFT$_2$), proposed as dual field theories in one lower dimension. For…

We revisit and extend the construction of bulk local states in flat holography, focusing on the induced representation obtained from the flat limit of the AdS highest-weight conditions. In three dimensions we clarify the scaling mismatch…

We revisit the reconstruction of a free quantum field in 4-dimensional Lorentzian Anti-de-Sitter (AdS$_4$) spacetime in terms of primary operators in the boundary 3d CFT (CFT$_3$). We show that the positive and negative energy subspaces of…

We present a "holographic" reconstruction of bulk spacetime geometry using correlation functions of a massless field living at the "future boundary" of the spacetime, namely future null infinity $\mathscr{I}^+$. It is holographic in the…

We develop the representation of free spinor fields in the bulk of Lorentzian anti-de Sitter space in terms of smeared operators in the dual conformal field theory. To do this we expand the bulk field in a complete set of normalizable…

We study the portion of an asymptotically Anti de Sitter geometry's bulk where the metric can be reconstructed, given the areas of minimal 2-surfaces anchored to a fixed boundary subregion. We exhibit situations in which this region can…

The bulk reconstruction program aims to obtain representations of bulk fields as operators in the boundary CFT. In this paper we extend the program by obtaining the boundary representation for a scalar field in a rotating BTZ black hole. We…

Bilocal holography is a constructive approach to the higher spin theory holographically dual to $O(N)$ vector models. In contrast to other approaches to bulk reconstruction, bilocal holography does not take input from the dual gravitational…

Assuming the existence of a field theory in D dimensions dual to (D+1)-dimensional flat space, governed by the asymptotic symmetries of flat space, we make some preliminary remarks about the properties of this field theory. We review…

The bulk reconstruction program involves expressing local bulk fields as non-local operators on the boundary. It was initiated in the context of AdS/CFT correspondence. Attempts to extend it to de Sitter have been successful for…
