Ryu-Takayanagi Area as an Entanglement Edge Term
نویسنده
چکیده
I argue that an analogy between emergent gauge theories and the bulk in AdS/CFT suggests that the Ryu-Takayanagi area term is a boundary entropy, counting the number of ways UV degrees of freedom in the bulk can satisfy an emergent gauge constraint for gravity at the entangling surface. Throughout this note, I review various definitions of EE in lattice gauge theories. April 26, 2017 ar X iv :1 70 4. 07 76 3v 1 [ he pth ] 2 5 A pr 2 01 7

The Complexity of Identifying Ryu-Takayanagi Surfaces in AdS3/CFT2
We present a constructive algorithm for the determination of Ryu-Takayanagi surfaces in AdS3/CFT2 which exploits previously noted connections between holographic entanglement entropy and max-flow/min-cut. We then characterize its complexity as a polynomial time algorithm. ar X iv :1 60 9. 01 72 7v 2 [ he pth ] 2 6 Se p 20 16
متن کاملLocality of Gravitational Systems from Entanglement of Conformal Field Theories.
The Ryu-Takayanagi formula relates the entanglement entropy in a conformal field theory to the area of a minimal surface in its holographic dual. We show that this relation can be inverted for any state in the conformal field theory to compute the bulk stress-energy tensor near the boundary of the bulk spacetime, reconstructing the local data in the bulk from the entanglement on the boundary. W...
متن کاملTopological Entanglement Entropy and Holography
We study the entanglement entropy in confining theories with gravity duals using the holographic prescription of Ryu and Takayanagi. The entanglement entropy between a region and its complement is proportional to the minimal area of a bulk hypersurface ending on their border. We consider a disk in 2+1 dimensions and a ball in 3+1 dimensions and find in both cases two types of bulk hypersurfaces...
متن کاملHolographic Entanglement Entropy: An Overview
In this article, we review recent progresses on the holographic understandings of the entanglement entropy in the AdS/CFT correspondence. After reviewing the general idea of holographic entanglement entropy, we will explain its applications to confinement/deconfinement phase transitions, black hole entropy and covariant formulation of holography. e-mail:[email protected] e-mai...
متن کاملMATTHEW HEADRICK 1 Statement of Recent Work
My work over the last few years has focused primarily on the study of entanglement and related quantum information theoretic concepts in quantum field theory and holography. In my view, one of the most important developments in theoretical physics in this century has been the recognition of the central role played by entanglement in the physics of extended quantum systems, ranging from condense...
