摘要

In this paper, we attempt to provide some insights into the structure of non-perturbative descriptions of quantum gravity using known examples of gauge theory/gravity duality. We argue that in familiar examples, a quantum description of spacetime can be associated with a manifold-like structure in which particular patches of spacetime are associated with states or density matrices in specific quantum systems.
