Assuming that the dominant contribution, to the entropy due to entanglement across a spherical hypersurface, comes from the near horizon degrees of freedom, we analytically derive the entropy of a free massless scalar field in Minkowski…

The trace over the degrees of freedom located in a subset of the space transforms the vacuum state into a mixed density matrix with non zero entropy. This is usually called entanglement entropy, and it is known to be divergent in quantum…

In conformal field theories, in contrast to \emph{adding} some auxiliary states into the bipartite mixed state $\rho_{AB}$ as the usual purifications do, we show a pure entangled state $\psi_{AB}$ can be constructed by \emph{subtracting}…
