Entanglement entropy: holography and renormalization group

T Nishioka - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2018 - APS
Entanglement entropy plays a variety of roles in quantum field theory, including the
connections between quantum states and gravitation through the holographic principle. This …

Holographic entanglement entropy: an overview

T Nishioka, S Ryu, T Takayanagi - Journal of Physics A …, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
In this paper, we review recent progress on the holographic understanding of the
entanglement entropy in the anti-de Sitter space/conformal field theory (AdS/CFT) …

A covariant holographic entanglement entropy proposal

VE Hubeny, M Rangamani… - Journal of High Energy …, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org

generic quantum field theories, we propose a covariant generalization of the holographic …

Relative entropy and holography

DD Blanco, H Casini, LY Hung, RC Myers - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013 - Springer
A bstract Relative entropy between two states in the same Hilbert space is a fundamental
statistical measure of the distance between these states. Relative entropy is always positive …

Bit threads and holographic entanglement

M Freedman, M Headrick - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2017 - Springer
Abstract The Ryu-Takayanagi (RT) formula relates the entanglement entropy of a region in a
holographic theory to the area of a corresponding bulk minimal surface. Using the max flow …

[HTML][HTML] Entanglement as a probe of confinement

IR Klebanov, D Kutasov, A Murugan - Nuclear physics B, 2008 - Elsevier
We investigate the entanglement entropy in gravity duals of confining large Nc gauge
theories using the proposal of [S. Ryu, T. Takayanagi, Phys. Rev. Lett. 96 (2006) 181602 …

A refinement of entanglement entropy and the number of degrees of freedom

H Liu, M Mezei - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013 - Springer
A bstract We introduce a “renormalized entanglement entropy” which is intrinsically UV finite
and is most sensitive to the degrees of freedom at the scale of the size R of the entangled …

Decomposition of entanglement entropy in lattice gauge theory

W Donnelly - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2012 - APS
We consider entanglement entropy between regions of space in lattice gauge theory. The
Hilbert space corresponding to a region of space includes “edge states” that transform …

Thermodynamical property of entanglement entropy for excited states

J Bhattacharya, M Nozaki, T Takayanagi, T Uga** - Physical review letters, 2013 - APS
We argue that the entanglement entropy for a very small subsystem obeys a property which
is analogous to the first law of thermodynamics when we excite the system. In relativistic …

On volumes of subregions in holography and complexity

O Ben-Ami, D Carmi - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016 - Springer
A bstract The volume of the region inside the bulk Ryu-Takayanagi surface is a codimension-
one object, and a natural generalization of holographic complexity to the case of subregions …
