abstract
We use the Einstein-Hilbert gravitational path integral to investigate gravitational entanglement at leading order $O(1/G)$. We argue that semiclassical states prepared by a Euclidean path integral have the property that projecting them onto a subspace in which the Ryu-Takayanagi or Hubeny-Rangamani-Takayanagi surface has definite area gives a state with a flat entanglement spectrum at this order in gravitational perturbation theory. This means that the reduced density matrix can be approximated as proportional to the identity to the extent that its Renyi entropies $S_n$ are independent of $n$ at this order. The $n$-dependence of $S_n$ in more general states then arises from sums over the RT/HRT-area, which are generally dominated by different values of this area for each $n$. This provides a simple picture of gravitational entanglement, bolsters the connection between holographic systems and tensor network models, clarifies the bulk interpretation of algebraic centers which arise in the quantum error-correcting description of holography, and strengthens the connection between bulk and boundary modular Hamiltonians described by Jafferis, Lewkowycz, Maldacena, and Suh.

Universality of Magic in Local Quantum Field Theory
In any local QFT, vacuum-like states have non-flat entanglement spectra because local algebras are type III₁, so no stabilizer state can flow to them in the continuum: QFT states necessarily carry magic.

Hollow-grams: Generalized Entanglement Wedges from the Gravitational Path Integral
The entropy of a bulk region in holographic states equals the generalized entropy of the smallest wedge containing it, derived from a replica path integral via a hollow-graphic construction.

A Holographic Map from AdS$_3$ to CFT$_2$
Semiclassical pure AdS3 gravity states, labelled by fixed-area geodesic networks, are mapped to CFT2 primary states whose wavefunctions are networks of OPE coefficients.

On the stabilizer complexity of Hawking radiation
In the PSSY model, the Wigner negativity (stabilizer magic) of Hawking radiation is O(1) before the Page time and grows as sqrt(2/pi) exp((S_max - S_2)/2) afterward; a similar formula is proposed for holographic state...

A Brief Note on Complex AdS-Schwarzschild Black Holes
Complex AdS-Schwarzschild saddles that naively dominate low-temperature holographic partition functions are argued, in a mini-superspace model, not to contribute, preserving thermal AdS as the correct saddle.

Triangulating quantum gravity in AdS$_3$
The fixed-angle gravitational path integral in AdS3 equals a Conformal Turaev-Viro partition function, the fixed-length path integral equals a Virasoro TQFT amplitude squared, and the semiclassical geometries are buil...
