Recovering information in an asymptotically flat spacetime in quantum gravity

Abstract

As an extension of arXiv:\{2002.02448, 2008.10740\} we present a physical protocol that a set of observers can use to detect a pure state in the bulk when they are spread across a small cut near ${\mathcal{I}}_{-}^{+}$ in flat spacetime. The protocol involves the modification of a bulk state using simple unitary operators and measurements of the energy of the state. The states that we study are constructed by acting with low energy operators on a vacuum state such that a perturbative analysis is valid. We restrict ourselves to $3+1$ dimensional spacetimes and only consider massless excitations. From this analysis, the principle of holography of information becomes manifest in the case of asymptotically flat spacetime.
