The infinite-dimensional HaPPY code: entanglement wedge reconstruction and dynamics

We construct an infinite-dimensional analog of the HaPPY code as a growing series of stabilizer codes defined respective to their Hilbert spaces. The Hilbert spaces are related by isometric maps, which we define explicitly. We construct a Hamiltonian that is compatible with the infinite-dimensional HaPPY code and further study the stabilizer of our code, which has an inherent fractal structure. We use this result to study the dynamics of the code and map a nontrivial bulk Hamiltonian to the boundary. We find that the image of the mapping is scale invariant, but does not create any long-range entanglement in the boundary, therefore failing to reproduce the features of a CFT. This result shows the limits of the HaPPY code as a model of the AdS/CFT correspondence, but also hints that the relevance of quantum error correction in quantum gravity may not be limited to the CFT context.
