Abstract
Inspired by ER=EPR conjecture we present a mathematical tool providing a link between quantum entanglement and the geometry of spacetime. We start with the idea of operators in extended Hilbert space which, by definition, has no positive definite scalar product. Adopting several simple postulates we show that a quantum harmonic oscillator can be constructed as a positive definite sector in that space. We discuss the two-dimensional oscillator constructed in such a way that the ground state is maximally entangled. Being a vector in the Hilbert space, it has also a non-trivial expansion in a bigger extended space. On one hand, the space is not free of negative norm states. On the other hand, it allows one to interpret the ground state geometrically in terms of AdS3. The interpretation is based solely on the form of the expansion, revealing certain structures at the boundary and in the bulk of AdS3. The former corresponds to world lines of massless particles at the boundary. The latter resembles interacting closed strings.
