Theory Seminar: Bulk Reconstruction in AdS/CFT

Date:
-
Location:
CP179
Speaker(s) / Presenter(s):
Ian Morrison (McGill U.)

Recently there has been much interest in the process of “bulk reconstruction,” i.e. the process of decoding sub-AdS scale physics from CFT data. In this talk I will review efforts to reconstruct the bulk using bulk equations of motion, symmetry considerations, and bootstrap techniques. I will also discuss the possibility of bulk reconstruction beyond the AdS causal wedge, the maximal region that bulk causality would naively allow.
