Bulk locality from modular flow
read the original abstract
We study the reconstruction of bulk operators in the entanglement wedge in terms of low energy operators localized in the respective boundary region. To leading order in $N$, the dual boundary operators are constructed from the modular flow of single trace operators in the boundary subregion. The appearance of modular evolved boundary operators can be understood due to the equality between bulk and boundary modular flows and explicit formulas for bulk operators can be found with a complete understanding of the action of bulk modular flow, a difficult but in principle solvable task. We also obtain an expression when the bulk operator is located on the Ryu-Takayanagi surface which only depends on the bulk to boundary correlator and does not require the explicit use of bulk modular flow. This expression generalizes the geodesic operator/OPE block dictionary to general states and boundary regions.

The entropy of bulk quantum fields and the entanglement wedge of an evaporating black hole
In a 2d evaporating black hole model, large boosts create O(1/G_N) gradients in bulk entropy that move the quantum extremal surface, causing the generalized entropy to follow unitary expectations with information disa...

Single-Sided Black Holes in Double-Scaled SYK Model and No Man's Island
In the double-scaled SYK model with an end-of-the-world brane, the boundary algebra for a single-sided black hole is a type II1 von Neumann factor with non-trivial commutant, preventing full bulk reconstruction and cr...
