Higher-curvature corrections to holographic entanglement entropy in geometries with hyperscaling violation

arXiv:1408.6380 · doi:10.1007/JHEP12(2014)078

Abstract

We study the effects of including higher-curvature corrections to the Einstein gravity bulk action on the holographic entanglement entropy (HEE) expression for geometries with hyperscaling violation (hvLf). For we show that one single new divergence arises for general curvature-squared gravities, which allows us to conjecture the general expression of HEE for any higher-order gravity action. For , we assume the hvLf geometry to arise above some intermediate scale , becoming AdS in the UV and perform a similar analysis for gravities. For negative values of we find that new logarithmic contributions show up in the HEE formula for any th-order gravity when and . In the range we do not find additional logarithmic contributions appearing at any order except for , which corresponds to the famous case encountered in Einstein gravity.
