HET Seminar | A top-down dictionary for double holography

Holographic interpretations of Randall-Sundrum (RS) branes provide a laboratory to explore the way quantum information evolves in field theories coupled to gravity. Despite this importance, the holographic interpretation of RS branes in terms of a theory of gravity coupled to a CFT is rather ad-hoc. In this talk, we use top-down constructions of RS branes in order to work out a precise dictionary for this "intermediate" holographic prescription, resolving serious causality problems of the naive picture often used in the literature while preserving many of the successes of the RS construction
