Clustering, Recovery, and Locality in Algebraic Quantum Field Theory: Quantitative Bounds via Split Inclusions and Modular Theory

Lluis Eriksson

Abstract

We prove that exponential clustering of vacuum correlations enables approximate reconstruction of global quasi-free states from local data in algebraic quantum field theory. The reconstruction is an explicit Gaussian procedure — conditional reattachment through the vacuum's regression structure — which coincides with the output of the Petz recovery map when the reference state factorizes across the split, but not in general: for a pure reference the Petz map returns the reference itself for every input, and version 1 of this paper incorrectly identified the two. For quasi-free states of a massive scalar field satisfying natural constraints, including a symplectic-gap (mixedness) condition on the reference state and an admissibility (no-steering) condition on the split geometry, we prove 1 - F <= C(d,kappa) / [eps^2 (1 - (eta_vac + delta)^2/eps)^2] * ||Delta12||_HS^2, where Delta12 is the reconstruction error, eta_vac <~ e^(-mr) is the vacuum correlation factor, delta controls cross-correlation perturbations, and C(d,kappa) = C_k(6+C_k)/(16 min(c1,c2)^2) with C_k = (1+kappa)^2/(kappa(kappa+2)) determined by the symplectic gap kappa > 0. A finite-rank corollary with explicit factor 2n recovers physical intuition. All counterexamples and bounds are verified by an exact truncated-Fock numerical suite distributed with the paper. Applications to holographic reconstruction are discussed.Version 2 makes three corrections to v1: (i) the reconstruction map of v1's Proposition 2.14 is not the Petz map — its "marginal preservation" step fails for correlated references — and the main theorem is restated for the reconstruction procedure the proof actually controls; (ii) the simplified constant is corrected (3/8 to 7/16 in the strongly mixed limit); (iii) a symplectic-gap hypothesis is added to the Gaussian fidelity lemma, shown necessary by an explicit counterexample.
