TASI Lectures on the Emergence of the Bulk in AdS/CFT
read the original abstract
These lectures review recent developments in our understanding of the emergence of local bulk physics in AdS/CFT. The primary topics are sufficient conditions for a conformal field theory to have a semiclassical dual, bulk reconstruction, the quantum error correction interpretation of the correspondence, tensor network models of holography, and the quantum Ryu-Takayanagi formula.

Decoding multiway gravitational junctions in AdS in terms of holographic quantum maps
Multiway AdS junctions dualize to factorized quantum maps on CFT interfaces, with scattering matrix fixed by junction tension and automorphisms from n-1 stringy modes, independent of background state.

A missing link: Brane networks and the Cobordism Conjecture
Defects tied to discrete symmetries via bordism groups Ω^ξ_2(BG) and homology H_2(BG;Z) are codimension-two branes that participate in networks with junctions, expanding the Cobordism Conjecture's predictions in strin...

Bordisms between 9d type IIB supergravities and commutator widths of duality groups
Proposes a refinement of the Swampland Cobordism Conjecture for Ω1(BG) with duality bundle G, where diverging commutator width of G requires infinitely many duality defects to realize monodromies via gravitational solitons.
