Holography for Small Values of the Cosmological Constant

Abstract

We review recent work on holography for finite area causal diamonds and explore its implications for the description of such diamonds in the Anti-deSitter space Conformal Field Theory correspondence. We argue that the algebra of operators in a finite area diamond is well defined in a UV cutoff tensor network construction, but is not related in any simple way to any infinite von Neumann sub-algebra of the boundary algebra or its cross product. Our argument relies on a novel construction of tensor networks that preserves rotation invariance.
