7 Radon Transform and its inverse Duality: f (x) ˆf (γ) Radon transform f (x) ˆf (γ) x p Γ ˆf (γ) = x γ f (x)dσ(γ) Dual transform ϕ(γ) ˇϕ(x) ˇϕ p (x) = d(x,γ)=p ϕ(γ) The inverse transform: f (x) = 1 π 0 1 d sinh p dp (ˆf ) p(x)dp.

8 Conformal block Conformal partial waves ( i all equal) W,l (x i ) from 4-point function O 1 (x 1 )O 2 (x 2 )O 3 (x 3 )O 4 (x 4 ) = C 12O C O 34W,l (x i ) O W,l (x i ) is related to the (global for 2d) conformal block G,l (u, v) G,l (u, v) W,l (x i ) (x12 2 ) 1 2 ( 1+ 2 ) (x34 2 ) 1 2 ( 3+ 4 ) where u, v are the cross ratios: u = x 2 12 x 2 34 x 2 13 x 2 24, v = x 2 14 x 2 23 x 2 13 x 2 24

10 Bulk field from geodesic operator Each pair of operators gives the Radon transform of a bulk operator ˆφ Czech etal ˆφ(x 1, x 2 ) = (x 12 ) 2 i C iio (x 12, )O(x 2 ) O i (x 1 )O j (x 2 ) = C ijo (x 12, )O(x 2 ) O Turning on a source of φ(x 3 ) (coupled to a primary O(x 3 )) gives the 3-point function (x 2 12 ) (x 2 13 ) (x 2 23 ) which is the Radon transform of the bulk-to-boundary propagator

11 Casimir Covariant kinematic space specified by end points z L,R = t L,R x L,R, z L,R = t L,R + x L,R ds 2 = L 4G [ 1 (z L z R ) 2 dz 1 Ldz R + ( z L v R ) 2 d z Ld z R ]. The holomorphic and anti-holomorphic coordinates decouple and the metric takes the form of ds 2 ds 2 The descendants of a certain primary O k all have eigenvalue C k and we have ( i = 0) [(L 2 + L 2 ), B k (x 1, x 2 )] = C k B k (x 1, x 2 ) = L 2 12B k (x 1, x 2 )

12 Casimir and equation of motion The Casimir in the position space (from L n = z n+1 z ) gives 2 ( ds2 + ds2 ) B k (x 1, x 2 ) = C k B k (x 1, x 2 ), which implies ( AdS m 2 ) φ (x) = 0 (2 ( ds2 + ds2 ) + m 2 ) φ (γ) = 0 One can solve for the OPE block O 1 (x 1 ) O 2 (x 2 ) = X k O k

15 Extension to Schwarzian theory The leading order non-conformal part is given by the Schwarzian {f (τ), τ}dτ, The following operator in the Schwarzian can have the bulk correspondence Mertens etal O l (τ 1, τ 2 ) = ( f (τ 1 )f 2l (τ 1 ) f (τ 1 ) f (τ 2 ) ) e 2lφ(τ 1,τ 2 ) The OPE block of the stress tensor corresponds to the conformal factor in the bulk metric f B ii T (τ 1, τ 2 ) = 2[φ(τ 1, τ 2 ) φ 0 (τ 1, τ 2 )]

19 RG flow in the kinematic space The short-distance entanglement (red) is removed while the long-distance (blue) entanglement is invariant under RG flow but it is reshuffled to shorter scale.

20 Ishibashi state The UV state φ(x) 0 can be expressed in terms of global Ishibashi state i.e., n L n 1 L n 1O Miyaji etal Realization of error correction using the covariant version of inverse Radon transform. Ishibashi state in a local form Goto&Takayanagi Γ2 Γ1 The IR (trivial) state should be an Ishibashi state of the full Virasoro algebra The IR operator only consists of geodesic operators going through point x

21 Summary The punch line is that we have a duality between the kinematic space real space. We can reconstruct the kinematic space from field theory. The construction based on geodesic applies to any space and any boundary. Bulk operator can be constructed using Radon transform. The dual operator (geodesic operator) follows from OPE The approach in principle can go beyond the conformal case and could have a wide range of applications.
