Shape dependence of holographic Rényi entropy in general dimensions

Journal Article Bianchi, Lorenzo ; Chapman, Shira ; Dong, Xi ; ... - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

We present a holographic method for computing the response of Rényi entropies in conformal field theories to small shape deformations around a flat (or spherical) entangling surface. Our strategy employs the stress tensor one-point function in a deformed hyperboloid background and relates it to the coefficient in the two-point function of the displacement operator. We obtain explicit numerical results for d = 3, · · · , 6 spacetime dimensions, and also evaluate analytically the limits where the Rényi index approaches 1 and 0 in general dimensions. We use our results to extend the work of 1602.08493 and disprove amore »« less

Time dependence of reflected entropy in rational and holographic conformal field theories

Journal Article Moosa, Mudassir - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

We calculate the time dependence of the reflected entropy of two disconnected regions after a global quench in (1 + 1)-dimensional conformal field theories and in large temperature limit. For rational conformal field theories, we find that the time evolution of the reflected entropy is the same as that of the mutual information. We get the same result for holographic theories in the limit where the separation between disconnected regions is much smaller than their respective sizes. We discuss how this result is consistent with the quasi-particle picture of Calabrese and Cardy.

Shape dependence of entanglement entropy in conformal field theories

Journal Article Faulkner, Thomas ; Leigh, Robert G. ; Parrikar, Onkar - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

Here, we study universal features in the shape dependence of entanglement entropy in the vacuum state of a conformal field theory (CFT) on R^1,d--1. We consider the entanglement entropy across a deformed planar or spherical entangling surface in terms of a perturbative expansion in the infinitesimal shape deformation. In particular, we focus on the second order term in this expansion, known as the entanglement density. This quantity is known to be non-positive by the strong-subadditivity property. We also show from a purely field theory calculation that the non-local part of the entanglement density in any CFT is universal, and proportionalmore »« less

Holographic Derivation of Entanglement Entropy from the anti-de Sitter Space/Conformal Field Theory Correspondence

Journal Article Ryu, Shinsei ; Takayanagi, Tadashi - Physical Review Letters

A holographic derivation of the entanglement entropy in quantum (conformal) field theories is proposed from anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory (AdS/CFT) correspondence. We argue that the entanglement entropy in d+1 dimensional conformal field theories can be obtained from the area of d dimensional minimal surfaces in AdS{sub d+2}, analogous to the Bekenstein-Hawking formula for black hole entropy. We show that our proposal agrees perfectly with the entanglement entropy in 2D CFT when applied to AdS{sub 3}. We also compare the entropy computed in AdS{sub 5}xS{sup 5} with that of the free N=4 super Yang-Mills theory.
