For local quenches in d>2 CFTs, the excess entanglement entropy of radiation grows as ξ^{d/2} at early and late times, obeys an all-time relative-entropy bound, and the holographic model produces a Page-like curve.

abstract
We find the expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor in the CFT corresponding to a moving black hole in AdS. Boosting the black hole to the speed of light, keeping the total energy fixed, yields a gravitational shock wave in AdS. The analogous procedure on the field theory side leads to ``light cone'' states, i.e., states with energy-momentum tensor localized on the light cone. The correspondence between the gravitational shock wave and these light cone states provides a useful tool for testing causality. We show, in several examples, how the CFT reproduces the causal relations in AdS.

The entropy of radiation for local quenches in higher dimensions
For local quenches in d>2 CFTs, the excess entanglement entropy of radiation grows as ξ^{d/2} at early and late times, obeys an all-time relative-entropy bound, and the holographic model produces a Page-like curve.
