Quantum Maximin Surfaces
Chris Akers, Netta Engelhardt, Geoff Penington +1
We formulate a quantum generalization of maximin surfaces and show that a quantum maximin surface is identical to the minimal quantum extremal surface, introduced in the EW prescri…
Entanglement Wedge Cross Sections Require Tripartite Entanglement
Chris Akers, Pratik Rath
We argue that holographic CFT states require a large amount of tripartite entanglement, in contrast to the conjecture that their entanglement is mostly bipartite. Our evidence is t…
Simple holographic models of black hole evaporation
Chris Akers, Netta Engelhardt, Daniel Harlow
Several recent papers have shown a close relationship between entanglement wedge reconstruction and the unitarity of black hole evaporation in AdS/CFT. The analysis of these papers…
Large Breakdowns of Entanglement Wedge Reconstruction
Chris Akers, Stefan Leichenauer, Adam Levine
We show that the bulk region reconstructable from a given boundary subregion --- which we term the reconstruction wedge --- can be much smaller than the entanglement wedge even whe…
