Erik Verlinde et.al argues that their conformal map suggests that in Non-AdS spacetimes the UV-IR(energy-distance) relationship is not what it seems in AdS spacetime,but a reversal.The paper explains this in terms of "Long string phenomenon"(which is a little above my skill sets)and draws parallel with a "worldline holography"by Anninos.
I wonder what theoretical implications this reversal could bring,or are alternative interpretations possible?

Hi Iwjjack, sorry to see you aren't getting any replies. This seems like a pretty advanced topic, so I doubt there are many on PF who can chime in on it. Best of luck to you though!
 
I seem to notice a buildup of papers like this: Detecting single gravitons with quantum sensing. (OK, old one.) Toward graviton detection via photon-graviton quantum state conversion Is this akin to “we’re soon gonna put string theory to the test”, or are these legit? Mind, I’m not expecting anyone to read the papers and explain them to me, but if one of you educated people already have an opinion I’d like to hear it. If not please ignore me. EDIT: I strongly suspect it’s bunk but...
