This is an extended version of our short report hep-th/0603001, where a holographic interpretation of entanglement entropy in conformal field theories is proposed from AdS/CFT correspondence. In addition to a concise review of relevant…
We compute the holographic entanglement entropy for the anomaly polynomial $\mathrm{Tr} R^2$ in 3+1 dimensions. Using the perturbative method developed for computing entanglement entropy for quantum field theories, we also compute the…
In this article we investigate aspects of entanglement entropy and mutual information in a large-N strongly coupled noncommutative gauge theory, both at zero and at finite temperature. Using the gauge-gravity duality and the Ryu-Takayanagi…
We derive the universal terms of entanglement entropy for 6d CFTs by applying the holographic and the field theoretical approaches, respectively. Our formulas are conformal invariant and agree with the results of [34,35]. Remarkably, we…
We propose a new holographic program of gravity in which we introduce a surface stress tensor. Our proposal differs from Verlinde's in several aspects. First, we use an open or a closed screen, a temperature is not necessary but a surface…
Quantum gravity in a finite region of spacetime is conjectured to be dual to a conformal field theory deformed by the irrelevant operator $T \overline{T}$. We test this conjecture with entanglement entropy, which is sensitive to ultraviolet…
We compute the entropies for general curvature squared gravities in arbitrary dimensions using the conserved charge and Virasoro algebra from surface term. We introduce an auxiliary tensor field in order to obtain the boundary action which…
Possible geometric frameworks for a unified theory of gravity and electromagnetism are investigated: General relativity is enlarged by allowing for an arbitrary complex linear connection and by constructing an extended spinor derivative…
We prove an entanglement principle for fractional Laplace operators on $\mathbb R^n$ for $n\geq 2$ as follows; if different fractional powers of the Laplace operator acting on several distinct functions on $\mathbb R^n$, which vanish on…
There appears a universal logarithmic term of entanglement entropy, i.e., $-a(\Omega) \log(H/\delta)$, for 3d CFTs when the entangling surface has a sharp corner. $a(\Omega)$ is a function of the corner opening angle and behaves as…
We present a detailed discussion of entanglement entropy in (1+1)-dimensional Warped Conformal Field Theories (WCFTs). We implement the Rindler method to evaluate entanglement and Renyi entropies for a single interval and along the way we…
We derive new functional renormalisation group flows for quantum gravity, in any dimension. The key new achievement is that the equations apply for any theory of gravity whose underlying Lagrangian $\sim f(R_{\mu\nu\rho\sigma})$ is a…
We present a holographic method for computing the response of R\'enyi entropies in conformal field theories to small shape deformations around a flat (or spherical) entangling surface. Our strategy employs the stress tensor one-point…
Using holographic entanglement entropy for strip geometry, we construct a candidate for a c-function in arbitrary dimensions. For holographic theories dual to Einstein gravity, this c-function is shown to decrease monotonically along RG…
We consider the universal logarithmic divergent term in the entanglement entropy of gauge fields in the Minkowski vacuum with an entangling sphere. Employing the mapping in arXiv:1102.0440, we analyze the corresponding thermal entropy on…
We have obtained the equation of the extremal hypersurface by considering the Jacobson-Myers functional and computed the entanglement entropy. In this context, we show that the higher derivative corrected extremal surfaces can not penetrate…
A theory of gravity with torsion is examined in which the torsion tensor is constructed from the exterior derivative of an antisymmetric rank two potential plus the dual of the gradient of a scalar field. Field equations for the theory are…
Entanglement entropy of gauge fields is calculated using the partition function in curved spacetime with a boundary. We derive a Gibbons-Hawking-like term from a Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) action and a Wald-entropy-like codimension-2…
Starting from the action function, we have derived a theoretical background that leads to the quantization of gravity and the deduction of a correlation between the gravitational and the inertial masses, which depends on the kinetic…
We investigate quantum gravity on simplicial lattices using Regge calculus with special emphasize on the problem of the unbounded action. The role of the entropy for the path integral is discussed in detail. Our numerical results show…
