In holographic duality, a higher dimensional quantum gravity system emerges from a lower dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) with a large number of degrees of freedom. We propose a formulation of duality for a general causally complete bulk spacetime region, called subregion-subalgebra duality, which provides a framework to describe how geometric notions in the gravity system, such as spacetime subregions, different notions of times, and causal structure, emerge from the dual CFT. Subregion-subalgebra duality generalizes and brings new insights into subregion-subregion duality (or equivalently entanglement wedge reconstruction). It provides a mathematically precise definition of subregion-subregion duality and gives an independent definition of entanglement wedges without using entropy. Geometric properties of entanglement wedges, including those that play a crucial role in interpreting the bulk as a quantum error correcting code, can be understood from the duality as the geometrization of the superadditivity of certain algebras. Using general boundary subalgebras rather than those associated with geometric subregions makes it possible to find duals for general bulk spacetime regions, including those not touching the boundary. Applying subregion-subalgebra duality to a boundary state describing a single-sided black hole also provides a precise way to define mirror operators.

Uniqueness of null-local modular flow
For the free massless scalar in a Minkowski causal diamond, the vacuum is the unique state or weight in the vacuum sector whose modular flow is local on the null boundary.

Universality of Magic in Local Quantum Field Theory
In any local QFT, vacuum-like states have non-flat entanglement spectra because local algebras are type III₁, so no stabilizer state can flow to them in the continuum: QFT states necessarily carry magic.

A de Sitter Anti-Scrambling Algebra
In a toy model of de Sitter quantum gravity, shockwave time advances break the KMS condition and prevent the Hartle-Hawking state from being a trace on the observer's crossed-product algebra.

Excitability in quantum field theory
For zero-mean Gaussian states in generalized free field theories, one-way local excitability always implies two-way excitability, generalizing the quasiequivalence theorems of Powers, Stormer, van Daele, Araki, and Yamagami.

Algebras for generalized entanglement wedges
Generalized (Bousso–Penington) entanglement wedges are conjectured to carry von Neumann algebras such that S_gen(W) = S(ω|A_W) − log Ind(E) + K_Ω (eq. 2.7), making BP's monotonicity and strong subadditivity consequenc...

The Making of von Neumann Algebras from Bulk Focusing
A boundary region's infinite-N operator algebra is a von Neumann algebra exactly when its generalized causal wedge closes on the same region; null geodesic focusing is the bulk mechanism.

Disjoint additivity and local quantum physics
Local quantum systems should obey disjoint additivity plus Haag duality, a combination that survives higher-form symmetries and fails for known nonlocal constructions.

Falling through the horizon of a quantum black hole
Gravitational dressing in JT gravity lets an infalling Unruh-DeWitt detector detect the horizon location and temperature locally, violating the equivalence principle without a firewall.

Combinatorial aspects of holographic quantum secret sharing
Bulk regions in AdS3/CFT2 get a holographic secret-sharing distance d and thresholds (r,s), with r = n - d + 1; pure states satisfy s = d - 1 while mixed states can satisfy s >= d.

Diamonds in the Bulk and Large-$N$ Scaling in AdS/CFT
Bulk field algebras of causal diamonds in AdS/CFT require a double-scaling limit, so sub-AdS-radius distances are not described by bulk QFT.

Cosmological correlators in gravitationally-constrained de Sitter states
Cosmological correlators in gravitationally constrained de Sitter states are conformally invariant and differ from QFT vacuum correlators, but relational observables with a heavy background state can reproduce QFT results.

Correlation functions of von Neumann entropy
Two-point correlators of modular Hamiltonians obey entropy-like properties and equal the stress-tensor conformal block for spherical regions in CFT, including imaginary-time separations.
