• Title: Constraints from Entanglement Wedge Nesting for Holography at a Finite Cutoff
• Authors: Krishan Saraswat,
• Abstract summary: Entanglement wedge nesting (EWN) requires that $mathcalW_E(A) cup mathcalW_E(B) subseteq mathcalW_E(Acup B)$. We study EWN in a two sided BTZ black hole geometry with an ETW brane in one of the exteriors.

• Abstract: We explore constraints that arise from associating an entanglement wedge (EW) to subregions of a cutoff boundary at a finite distance in AdS/CFT, using a subcritical end-of-the-world (ETW) brane acting as the cutoff. In particular, we consider the case of two intervals in the holographic dual to a BCFT, with one interval $A$ located at the asymptotic boundary and the second interval $B$ located on the ETW brane. We discuss in detail subtleties that arise near the RT end-points when defining the EW for this configuration, particularly in the connected phase. Entanglement wedge nesting (EWN) requires that $\mathcal{W}_E(A) \cup \mathcal{W}_E(B) \subseteq \mathcal{W}_E(A\cup B)$. We demonstrate that already in the simplest example of an AdS$_3$ bulk geometry, EWN can be violated even if $A$ and $B$ are spacelike separated through the bulk and instead we must require the stronger condition that $\mathcal{W}_E(A)$ be spacelike separated from $\mathcal{W}_E(B)$, which highlights the non-local nature of the cutoff theory. Our prescription to associate EWs to subregions on the ETW brane is different from the restricted maximin procedure in arXiv:2008.07022 but will agree within the subset of parameter space where EWN is respected. Additionally, we study EWN in a two sided BTZ black hole geometry with an ETW brane in one of the exteriors. In the BTZ black hole example we find that our condition for EWN disallows configurations where the RT surface goes from the brane to the black hole singularity.

  We take the critical boundary of the $2d$ toric code as an example. The intrinsic nonlocal nature of the anyons demands the strong and weak symmetry condition for the ordinary decoherence problem. We show that decoherence-analogues of Majorana zero modes are localized at the spatial interface of the relevant $e$ and $m$ anyon decoherence channels.

• Holographic BCFT with a Defect on the End-of-the-World Brane [0.0]
  We propose a new gravity dual for a $2$d BCFT with two conformal boundaries. We compute the holographic entanglement entropy and find that it exhibits three different phases. We also construct a wormhole saddle, analogous to a $3$d replica wormhole, which connects different boundaries through the AdS bulk.

  We provide a systematic treatment of boundaries based on subgroups $Ksubseteq G$ with the Kitaev quantum double $D(G)$ model in the bulk. The boundary sites are representations of a $*$-subalgebra $Xisubseteq D(G)$ and we explicate its structure as a strong $*$-quasi-Hopf algebra. As an application of our treatment, we study patches with boundaries based on $K=G$ horizontally and $K=e$ vertically and show how these could be used in a quantum computer

  We argue that for generic black hole parameters as initial conditions for Einstein equations, the metric is $C0$-extendable to a larger Lorentzian manifold. We prove it violates the "complexity=volume" conjecture for a low-temperature hyperbolic AdS$_d+1$ black hole dual to a CFT living on a ($d-1$)-dimensional hyperboloid $H_d-1$.
