Title: Correlation measures and distillable entanglement in AdS / CFT

Abstract

Recent developments have exposed close connections between quantum information and holography. In this paper, we explore the geometrical interpretations of the recently introduced Q-correlation and R-correlation, EQ and ER. We find that EQ admits a natural geometric interpretation via the surface-state correspondence: it is a minimal mutual information between a surface region A and a cross section of A’s entanglement wedge with B. We note a strict trade-off between this minimal mutual information and the symmetric side-channel-assisted distillable entanglement from the environment E to A, Iss(E>A). We also show that the R-correlation, ER, coincides holographically with the entanglement wedge cross section. This further elucidates the intricate relationship between entanglement, correlations, and geometry in holographic field theories.
