Motivated by the study of entanglement island in the Karch-Randall braneworld, it has been conjectured and proven in general that entanglement island is not consistent with long-range (massless) gravity. In this paper, we provide a careful check of this conclusion in a model of massless gravity that is constructed using the Karch-Randall braneworld. We show that there is indeed no entanglement island and hence not a nontrivial Page curve due to the diffeomorphism invariance if we are studying the correct question which is though subtle. Moreover, we show that this conclusion is not affected by deforming the setup with the Dvali--Gabadadze--Porrati (DGP) terms. Furthermore, we show that the consistency of holography in this model will provide nontrivial constraints to the DGP parameters. This study provides an example that causality and holography in anti-de Sitter space can be used to constrain low energy effective theories. At the end, we clarify several subtleties in the braneworld gravity which are overlooked in the literature and we discuss the robustness of the above results against possible coarse-graining protocols to define a subregion in a gravitational theory.

  1. Holography and Kinematic Space for Gravitational Sub-regions in AdS

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    The paper proposes a kinematic space for any subregion of vacuum AdS, whose geodesic 'PEE threads' uniformly cover the subregion and yield tensor-network models that reproduce Ryu-Takayanagi entropy and realize surfac...

  2. The Mechanism behind the Information Encoding for Islands

    hep-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Island information is encoded in the bath because island operators are gravitationally dressed to the bath via the massive-graviton Stückelberg field, realized as Wilson lines in the Karch-Randall braneworld.

  3. The entropy of radiation for local quenches in higher dimensions

    hep-th 2025-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    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.

  4. Building an AdS/BCFT Josephson junction within Horndeski gravity

    hep-th 2025-10 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    AdS/BCFT with Horndeski gravity is claimed to yield Josephson junctions whose phase and current depend on the Horndeski couplings, but the condensate and critical temperature are put in by hand.

  5. Probing the Black Hole Interior with Holographic Entanglement Entropy and the Role of AdS/BCFT Correspondence

    hep-th 2025-08 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    The paper's central claim, that a Horndeski-gravity residual entropy -ξ/6 identifies smooth-interior microstates and firewalls, is an unsupported interpretation of previously derived formulas.
