abstract

Local operators in the bulk of AdS can be represented as smeared operators in the dual CFT. We show how to construct these bulk observables by requiring that the bulk operators commute at spacelike separation. This extends our previous work by taking interactions into account. Large-N factorization plays a key role in the construction. We show diagrammatically how this procedure is related to bulk Feynman diagrams.

The yes boundaries wavefunctions of the universe

hep-th · 2026-04-11 · conditional · novelty 6.5

A constrained product of two dressed one-sided dS quantum systems yields a holographic dual whose top-band TFD and lower tall states capture the future wedge and overlapping causal wedges.

Quantum Fluctuations of the Black Hole Horizon

hep-th · 2026-06-26 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Quantum width of spherically symmetric black hole horizons is defined by signal escape timing and calculated in perturbative quantum gravity to often greatly exceed the Planck length, scaling as sqrt(l_P r_s^2 / sigma_perp) for Schwarzschild patches.

Holographic $SO(2,d)$ anomaly

hep-th · 2021-05-31 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

The authors establish the descendant structure of the holographic SO(2,d) anomaly and construct the associated characteristic class, bulk Chern-Simons-like action, boundary effective action, and anomalous conservation laws in covariant and consistent forms.
