Petz reconstruction in random tensor networks
Open accessAbstract
We illustrate the ideas of bulk reconstruction in the context of random tensor network toy models of holography. Specifically, we demonstrate how the Petz reconstruction map works to obtain bulk operators from the boundary data by exploiting the replica trick. We also take the opportunity to comment on the differences between coarse-graining and random projections.

A Petz-like map can be used to demonstrate bulk reconstruction in random tensor network toy models of holography.
“More recently, it has been shown that a Petz-like map can be used to demonstrate bulk reconstruction in random tensor network toy models [52,185] of holography.”

Random tensor networks have been used to demonstrate approximate bulk reconstruction via the universal recovery map.
“Such random tensor networks are known to successfully demonstrate several holographic properties [184] and have been recently used to demonstrate approximate bulk reconstruction [185] via the universal recovery map described in Sect.4.3.2below.”

“Some of these discussions have explicitly demonstrated the non-trivial encoding of the bulk in the boundary, especially in the context of black hole evaporation through the replica wormhole contributions [20, 21] (which justify the quantum extremal surface [22] prescription).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
