• Authors: Erickson Tjoa and Finnian Gray
• Abstract summary: We present a "modest" holographic reconstruction of the bulk geometry in unrelatedally flat spacetime using the two-point correlators of quantum field theory (QFT) The bulk reconstruction relies on two results: (i) there is a bulk-to-boundary type correspondence between free quantum fields living in the bulk manifold and free quantum fields living on its null boundary, and (ii) one can construct the metric by making use of the Hadamard expansion of the field living in the bulk.

• Abstract: In this work we present a "modest" holographic reconstruction of the bulk geometry in asymptotically flat spacetime using the two-point correlators of boundary quantum field theory (QFT) in asymptotically flat spacetime. The boundary QFT lives on the null boundary of the spacetime, namely null infinity and/or the Killing horizons. The bulk reconstruction relies on two unrelated results: (i) there is a bulk-to-boundary type correspondence between free quantum fields living in the bulk manifold and free quantum fields living on its null boundary, and (ii) one can construct the metric by making use of the Hadamard expansion of the field living in the bulk. This holographic reconstruction is "modest" in that the fields used are non-interacting and not strong-weak holographic duality in the sense of AdS/CFT, but it works for generic asymptotically flat spacetime subject to some reasonably mild conditions.

  We provide an explicit and general framework for understanding the bulk-boundary correspondence in Pauli topological stabilizer codes. We show that the boundary Hilbert space cannot be realized via local degrees of freedom. We show how linear and fractal subsystem symmetries naturally arise at the boundaries of fracton phases.

  We consider deformations of boundary conditions in flat spacetimes under flat space co-dimension-two holographies, celestial holography and Wedge-like holography. In the former celestial-holographic approach, we imposed boundary conditions on initial and final bulk states in the scattering. In the latter Wedge-like holography, we consider mixed Neumann/Dirichlet boundary conditions on the null infinity of the light-cone.

  We realize a version of "short-distance physics corresponds to poor statistics" idea by Kempf. The "fuzziness" of spacetime that arise from operational measurement protocols can be given a holographic dual interpretation. The holographic interpretation necessitates metric reconstruction even in principle due to the universality of future infinity.

We observe that the entanglement phase transitions occurring in the stationary state have the same nature as that occurring in the vacuum of the non-hermitian Hamiltonian.

  We construct and study an ensemble of non-isometric error correcting codes in a toy model of an evaporating black hole in dilaton gravity. We show that the typical such code is very likely to preserve pairwise inner products in a set $S$ of states that can be subexponentially large in the microcanonical Hilbert space dimension of the black hole.

  The percolation transition is defined through the appearance of the infinite cluster. We show that the exponentially increasing dimensionality of the Hilbert space makes its covering by finite-size hyperspheres inefficient. Our approach to the percolation transition in compact metric spaces may prove useful for its rigorous treatment in other contexts.

  We study topological properties of bound pairs of photons in spatially-modulated qubit arrays coupled to a waveguide. For open boundary condition, we find exotic topological bound-pair edge states with radiative losses. By joining two structures with different spatial modulations, we find long-lived interface states which may have applications in storage and quantum information processing.
