abstract
The covariant holographic entropy conjecture of AdS/CFT relates the entropy of a boundary region R to the area of an extremal surface in the bulk spacetime. This extremal surface can be obtained by a maximin construction, allowing many new results to be proven. On manifolds obeying the null curvature condition, these extremal surfaces: i) always lie outside the causal wedge of R, ii) have less area than the bifurcation surface of the causal wedge, iii) move away from the boundary as R grows, and iv) obey strong subadditivity and monogamy of mutual information. These results suggest that the information in R allows the bulk to be reconstructed all the way up to the extremal area surface. The maximin surfaces are shown to exist on spacetimes without horizons, and on black hole spacetimes with Kasner-like singularities.

In a 2d evaporating black hole model, large boosts create O(1/G_N) gradients in bulk entropy that move the quantum extremal surface, causing the generalized entropy to follow unitary expectations with information disappearing after a scrambling time and a phase transition at the Page time.
Holographic tensor networks constructed from PEE-thread tessellations of AdS geometry reproduce the exact Ryu-Takayanagi formula in factorized EPR, perfect-tensor, and random variants.
Evanescent quantum extremal surfaces, bounded in area but not generalized entropy, diagnose failures of spacetime emergence in holography.
Semiclassical crossed product constructions extend the algebraic reconstruction theorem to type III algebras and yield an algebraic Ryu-Takayanagi formula for holographic duality.
A variational perturbative method using the inhomogeneous Jacobi equation computes first-order changes in holographic subregion complexity for strip and disk subsystems under boosted black brane perturbations in AdS4, with the linear term vanishing for spherical subsystems.
Review of classical energy conditions, their quantum violations, and information-theoretic bounds for semi-classical gravity, based on Modave lectures.
