Place: Theoretical Physics Division,312 

Abstract: 
In this talk, the speaker would like to report recent progress on emergent geometries from CFT in the framework of AdS/CFT. Particularly, he will present how the thermal geometry emerges from CFT at finite temperature by using the truncated entanglement renormalization network (cMERA) and the recently conjectured surface/state correspondence (SS-duality), respectively. Then, he would like to address a newly proposed HC/RFS duality. With this duality, some interesting properties can be obtained.
