Scalar Fields in BTZ Black Hole Spacetime and Entanglement Entropy

arXiv:1106.1005 · doi:10.1088/0264-9381/30/23/235034

Abstract

We study the quantum scalar fields in background of BTZ black hole spacetime. We calculate the entanglement entropy using the discretized model, which resembles a system of coupled harmonic oscillators. The leading term of the entropy formula is standard Bakenstein-Hawking entropy and sub-leading corresponds to quantum corrections to black hole entropy. We calculate the co-efficent of sub-leading logarithmic corrections numerically.
