Toward random tensor networks and holographic codes in CFT.
In holographic CFTs, there is a regime where the operator product expansion can be approximated by a random tensor network. This provides a concrete realization of a holographic quantum error-correcting code, directly from the dual CFT. I will describe the construction in 2d CFT and show that it reproduces various features of black holes and wormholes quantitatively, including a transition from an isometric to non-isometric code at a black hole horizon.
