A Holographic Error-Correcting Code in de Sitter Space: Relation to AdS/CFT
David Elliman · Neuro-Symbolic Ltd · 25 June 2026
Abstract
A graduate-level bridge between the substrate and AdS/CFT holographic error correction. A three-part verdict: they share a deep principle (bulk-in-boundary error correction) and a deep law (entanglement entropy = geometric area), but differ in two checkable ways — the substrate's code is not a HaPPY perfect tensor, and its spacetime is flat with a de Sitter cosmology, not anti-de Sitter. The natural bridge is therefore de Sitter / cosmological-horizon holography, where the substrate offers a concrete microscopic holographic code with explicit boundary dynamics; the Ryu–Takayanagi area law is verified directly on the lattice.
