Entanglement entropy for a spatial partition of a quantum system is studied in theories which admit a dual description in terms of the anti-de Sitter (AdS) gravity one dimension higher. A general proof of the holographic formula which…
There is strong evidence that the area of any surface limits the information content of adjacent spacetime regions, at 10^(69) bits per square meter. We review the developments that have led to the recognition of this entropy bound, placing…
Bousso's entropy bound for two-dimensional gravity is investigated in the lightcone gauge. It is shown that due to the Weyl anomaly, the null component of the energy-momentum tensor takes a nonvanishing value, and thus, combined with the…
Using a uniformization map we determine the holographic entanglement entropy for states of a Warped Conformal Field Theory dual to a generic vacuum metric in AdS$_3$ gravity with Comp\`ere--Song--Strominger boundary conditions. We point out…

We investigate the validity of the Generalized Second Law (GSL) of thermodynamics in a $(2+1)$-dimensional holographic cosmological model with a negative cosmological constant. Adopting a horizon thermodynamics framework, we examine two…
We study a holographic theory of general spacetimes that does not rely on the existence of asymptotic regions. This theory is to be formulated in a holographic space. When a semiclassical description is applicable, the holographic space is…
Recently, several notions of entanglement in time have emerged as a novel frontier in quantum many-body physics, quantum field theory and gravity. We propose a systematic prescription to characterize temporal entanglement in relativistic…
We formulate an extended holographic dark energy scenario based on a recently proposed two-parameter generalized entropic functional. Unlike constructions that phenomenologically impose modified entropy-area relations at the horizon level,…
We discuss two measures of entanglement in quantum field theory and their holographic realizations. For field theories admitting a global symmetry, we introduce a global symmetry entanglement entropy, associated with the partitioning of the…
Based on Landauer's principle, we provide a geometrical definition for the entropy of a given static, spherically symmetric spacetime. Considering a congruence of geodesics across a surface, one defines the entropy of a congruence as the…
Kovtun, Son and Starinets proposed a bound on the viscosity of any fluid in terms of its entropy density. The bound is saturated by maximally supersymmetric theories at strong coupling, but can also easily be challenged experimentally to…
We note that the observable part of universe at a certain time t_P is necessarily limited, when there is a beginning of universe. We argue that an appropriate spacetime region associated with an observer from tI to t_P is the causal diamond…
It may be a common understanding at present that, once event horizons are in thermal equilibrium, the entropy-area law holds inevitably. However, no rigorous verification is given to such a very strong universality of the law in…
In quantum field theories defined on a spacetime with boundaries, the entanglement entropy exhibits subleading, boundary-induced corrections to the ubiquitous area law. At critical points described by conformal field theories (CFTs), and…
We construct a generally-covariant formulation of non-equilibrium thermodynamics in General Relativity. We find covariant entropic forces arising from gradients of the entropy density, and a corresponding non-conservation of the energy…
Starting from the universal entropy bounds suggested by Bekenstein and Susskind and applying them to the black-body radiation situation, we get a cut-off of space $ \Delta x \geq \chi l_{\mathrm{P}}$ with $\chi \geq 0.1$. We go further to…
