Surface growth approach for bulk reconstruction
Year: 2020
Type: preprint
Abstract: We propose a novel and natural surface growth approach to reconstruct the bulk spacetime. The picture is similar to Huygens' principle of wave propagation, in which each subregion of the old entanglement surface becomes a ``wave source'' of the new one, then layer by layer, the newly generated entanglement surfaces can reach bulk region far away from the boundary. We show that this picture can be described reasonably and quantitatively, and thus provides a concrete and intuitive way for the entanglement wedge reconstruction.
