Recent results suggest that new corrections to holographic entanglement entropy should arise near phase transitions of the associated Ryu-Takayanagi (RT) surface. We study such corrections by decomposing the bulk state into fixed-area…
We show that the peak which can be observed in fidelity susceptibility around the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition is shifted from the quantum critical point (QCP) at $J_c$ to $J^*$ in the gapped phase by a value $|J^* - J_c| =…

We propose scaling theories for Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) phase transitions on the basis of the hallmark exponential growth of their correlation length. Finite-size scaling, finite-entanglement scaling, short-time critical dynamics, and…
It is generally believed that in spatial dimension d > 1 the leading contribution to the entanglement entropy S = - tr rho_A log rho_A scales as the area of the boundary of subsystem A. The coefficient of this "area law" is non-universal.…
