We study the $(d+2)$-dimensional Hyperscaling Violating (HV) geometries in the presence of both a finite temperature $T$ and a UV cutoff $r_c$. This gravitational system is conjectured to be dual to $T\bar{T}$ like deformed HV QFTs. We…

This work presents a study of the entanglement entropy (EE) in a class of four-dimensional ${\cal N}=1$ linear quiver SCFTs deformed by the presence of a VEV. We review the holographic backgrounds dual to these theories, and calculate the…

We consider the entanglement entropy of a free massive scalar field in the one parameter family of $\alpha$-vacua in de Sitter space by using a method developed by Maldacena and Pimentel. An $\alpha$-vacuum can be thought of as a state…

The entanglement entropy of a free field in de Sitter space is enhanced by the squeezing of its modes. We show analytically that the expansion induces a term in the entanglement entropy that depends logarithmically on the size of the…

We study the entanglement spectra of bilayer quantum Hall systems at total filling factor nu=1. In the interlayer-coherent phase at layer separations smaller than a critical value, the entanglement spectra show a striking similarity to the…
