Evanescent quantum extremal surfaces, bounded in area but not generalized entropy, diagnose failures of spacetime emergence in holography.
Semiclassical crossed product constructions extend the algebraic reconstruction theorem to type III algebras and yield an algebraic Ryu-Takayanagi formula for holographic duality.
Dressed relational observables imply quasi-de Sitter space corresponds to Type II_∞ von Neumann algebra with diverging trace in the gravity decoupling limit, unlike the finite-trace Type II_1 algebra for de Sitter space.
An Albert algebra description of the horizon yields a Volterra memory law on the Reissner-Nordstrom evaporation trajectory whose spectral overlap reconstructs the Page curve envelope without restoring standard AMPS tensor factorization.
