We discuss a situation where a holographic CFT state has multiple semiclassical bulk duals. In our example, a given holographic state has two simple, semiclassical descriptions, one with a closed universe, constructed using the gravitational path integral, and one without a closed universe, constructed using the extrapolate dictionary. This highlights an ambiguity in the AdS/CFT dictionary. We propose various options for resolving this tension although none are perfectly satisfactory. We also discuss what this implies for the black hole interior and the gravitational path integral.

Elastic stiffness of three-dimensional black holes and wormholes from Liouville line defects
Shape and mass-density deformations of thin-shell AdS3 black holes and wormholes have stiffness kernels equal to two-point functions of defect-local displacement and mass-density operators, computed from linearized Li...

Baby Universes from Thermal Pure States in SYK
A JT-gravity baby universe is constructed with a microscopic dual given by a low-temperature thermal pure state of two coupled SYK models, and its bulk entanglement to the AdS region is O(N) below the phase transition.

The Baby Universe is Fine and the CFT Knows It: On Holography for Closed Universes
A closed universe in AdS/CFT is not ruled out by recent SWAP-test arguments; the one-dimensional Hilbert space seen from the CFT is external indistinguishability, and CFT data can reconstruct the closed universe's geometry.
