In this note a new method for computing the entanglement entropy of a CFT holographically is explored. It consists of finding a bulk background with a boundary metric that has the conical singularities needed to compute the entanglement…
We compute the entanglement entropy of a wide class of exactly solvable models which may be characterized as describing matter coupled to gauge fields. Our principle result is an entanglement sum rule which states that entropy of the full…
We study approximation schemes for shift spaces over a finite alphabet using (pseudo)metrics connected to Ornstein's $\bar{d}$ metric. This leads to a class of shift spaces we call $\bar{d}$-approachable. A shift space…
Similarly to the system Hamiltonian, a subsystem's reduced density matrix is composed of blocks characterized by symmetry quantum numbers (charge sectors). We present a geometric approach for extracting the contribution of individual charge…

We give a new proof for the area law for general 1D gapped systems, which exponentially improves Hastings' famous result \cite{ref:Has07}. Specifically, we show that for a chain of d-dimensional spins, governed by a 1D local Hamiltonian…
We give an embedding of the Poincar\'e halfspace $H^D$ into a discrete metric space based on a binary tiling of $H^D$, with additive distortion $O(\log D)$. It yields the following results. We show that any subset $P$ of $n$ points in $H^D$…
Let $G$ be a topological group, let $\phi$ be a continuous endomorphism of $G$ and let $H$ be a closed $\phi$-invariant subgroup of $G$. We study whether the topological entropy is an additive invariant, that is,…
