The flat limit of three dimensional asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes
read the original abstract
In order to get a better understanding of holographic properties of gravitational theories with a vanishing cosmological constant, we analyze in detail the relation between asymptotically anti-de Sitter and asymptotically flat spacetimes in three dimensions. This relation is somewhat subtle because the limit of vanishing cosmological constant cannot be naively taken in standard Fefferman-Graham coordinates. After reformulating the standard anti-de Sitter results in Robinson-Trautman coordinates, a suitably modified Penrose limit is shown to connect both asymptotic regimes.

Timelike Liouville theory and AdS$_3$ gravity at finite cutoff
Proposes that AdS3 gravity at finite cutoff is dual to a CFT2 coupled to timelike Liouville theory deformed by a marginal operator, with checks via semiclassical partition functions and EOM matching.

Generalized Entanglement Wedges and the Connected Wedge Theorem
Generalized entanglement wedges rephrase the connected wedge theorem in bulk entropy terms, yielding mutual information bounds and a scattering-to-connected-wedge implication that extends to flat spacetimes.
