Holographic geometry/real-space entanglement correspondence and metric reconstruction
arXiv:2505.08534 · doi:10.1007/JHEP09(2025)081
Abstract
In holography, the boundary entanglement structure is believed to be encoded in the bulk geometry. In this work, we investigate the precise correspondence between the boundary real-space entanglement and the bulk geometry. By the boundary real-space entanglement, we refer to the conditional mutual information (CMI) for two infinitesimal subsystems separated by a distance , and the corresponding bulk geometry is at a radial position , namely the turning point of the entanglement wedge for a boundary region with a length scale . In a generic geometry described by a given coordinate system, can be determined locally by , while the exact expression for depends on the gauge choice, reflecting the inherent nonlocality of this seemingly local correspondence. We propose to specify the function as the criterion for a gauge choice, and with the specified gauge function, we verify the exact correspondence between the boundary real-space entanglement and the bulk geometry. Inspired by this correspondence, we propose a new method of bulk metric reconstruction from boundary entanglement data, namely the CMI reconstruction. In this CMI proposal, with the gauge fixed a priori by specifying , the bulk metric can be reconstructed from the relation between the bulk geometry and the boundary CMI. The CMI reconstruction method establishes a connection between the differential entropy prescription and Bilson's general algorithm for metric reconstruction.
