Late-time dominance of entanglement islands plays a critical role in addressing the information paradox for black holes in AdS coupled to an asymptotic non-gravitational bath. A natural question is how this observation can be extended to gravitational systems. To gain insight into this question, we explore how this story is modified within the context of Karch-Randall braneworlds when we allow the asymptotic bath to couple to dynamical gravity. We find that because of the inability to separate degrees of freedom by spatial location when defining the radiation region, the entanglement entropy of radiation emitted into the bath is a time-independent constant, consistent with recent work on black hole information in asymptotically flat space. If we instead consider an entanglement entropy between two sectors of a specific division of the Hilbert space, we then find non-trivial time-dependence, with the Page time a monotonically decreasing function of the brane angle -- provided both branes are below a particular angle. However, the properties of the entropy depend discontinuously on this angle, which is the first example of such discontinuous behavior for an AdS brane in AdS space.

  1. Holography and Kinematic Space for Gravitational Sub-regions in AdS

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    The paper proposes a kinematic space for any subregion of vacuum AdS, whose geodesic 'PEE threads' uniformly cover the subregion and yield tensor-network models that reproduce Ryu-Takayanagi entropy and realize surfac...

  2. Algebras, Entanglement Islands, and Observers

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Entanglement islands in the AdS/bath island model realize the quantum-gravity 'observer' as a Goldstone vector mode, making the island operator algebra an emergent Type II∞ von Neumann algebra.

  3. An apologia for islands

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Entanglement islands and Page curves can arise in massless gravity without an external bath, and compactly supported gauge-invariant operators exist in islands around generic symmetry-breaking black hole backgrounds.

  4. The Mechanism behind the Information Encoding for Islands

    hep-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Island information is encoded in the bath because island operators are gravitationally dressed to the bath via the massive-graviton Stückelberg field, realized as Wilson lines in the Karch-Randall braneworld.

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Deformed CFTs on a strip with a stretched-horizon conformal boundary are proposed as UV completions of pure and matter-coupled JT gravity, reproducing its entropy and a Page-curve-like saturation.

  6. On the Underlying Nonrelativistic Nature of Relativistic Holography

    hep-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Standard AdS/CFT duality is reinterpreted as D-brane/black-brane duality in nonrelativistic D3-brane theory, with AdS5×S5 as a relativistic bubble in flat 3-Newton-Cartan geometry.

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A generalized defect-extremal-surface prescription for AdS3/ICFT2 is shown to match island-formula entropies in the large-tension limit and to produce Page curves for 2d eternal black holes.

    For two-component FLRW universes built from an AdS black brane plus p-brane gas, holographic entanglement entropy scales as tau early and as tau^{4/3} (dark matter) or tau^2 (exotic matter) late, while volume complexi...

    AdS/BCFT with Horndeski gravity is claimed to yield Josephson junctions whose phase and current depend on the Horndeski couplings, but the condensate and critical temperature are put in by hand.

    Scalar perturbations of a split five-dimensional thick brane yield long-lived quasinormal modes and position-dependent echo waveforms: clean periodic echoes on a sub-brane and modulated echoes between sub-branes.
