Relation between boundary random-encoding viewpoint and bulk gravitational path integrals

Develop a precise connection between the boundary interpretation of a baby universe as logical qubits arising from pseudorandom encoding in holographic CFTs and bulk gravitational path-integral constructions that exhibit semiclassical baby-universe saddles.

Background

The paper proposes that pseudorandom dynamics in holographic CFTs lead to a random-encoding structure that naturally yields a baby-universe-like sector inaccessible to individual boundaries. This resolves certain puzzles via emergent complementarity.

While this boundary-centric, information-theoretic interpretation is compelling, the authors note that a concrete linkage to bulk gravitational path integrals is still lacking and requires further development.

References

How this viewpoint connects to bulk gravitational path integrals remains to be fully understood.
