We study a number of (3+1)- and (2+1)-dimensional defect and boundary conformal field theories holographically dual to supergravity theories. In all cases the defects or boundaries are planar, and the defects are codimension-one. Using…

Holographic entanglement entropy is a key concept linking quantum information theory and gravity. Since the original conjecture of Ryu and Takayanagi, holographic entanglement entropy has been generalized beyond Einstein--Hilbert gravity to…

The Ryu-Takayanagi prescription can be cast in terms of a set of microscopic threads that help visualize holographic entanglement in terms of distillation of EPR pairs. While this framework has been exploited for regions with a high degree…

Entanglement entropy quantifies the amount of uncertainty of a quantum state. For quantum fields in curved space, entanglement entropy of the quantum field theory degrees of freedom is well-defined for a fixed background geometry. In this…

Defining finite entanglement entropy for a subregion in quantum field theory requires the introduction of two logically independent scales: an IR scale that controls the size of the subregion, and a UV cut-off. In AdS/CFT, the IR scale is…

It was recently found that the stabilizer and hypergraph entropy cones coincide for four parties, leading to a conjecture of their equivalence at higher party numbers. In this note, we show this conjecture to be false by proving new…
