Holographic Proof of the Quantum Null Energy Condition
Jason Koeller, Stefan Leichenauer
We use holography to prove the Quantum Null Energy Condition (QNEC) at leading order in large- for CFTs and relevant deformations of CFTs in Minkowski space which have Einstein…
Proof of the Quantum Null Energy Condition
Raphael Bousso, Zachary Fisher, Jason Koeller +2
We prove the Quantum Null Energy Condition (QNEC), a lower bound on the stress tensor in terms of the second variation in a null direction of the entropy of a region. The QNEC aros…
Entanglement Tsunami in (1+1)-Dimensions
Stefan Leichenauer, Mudassir Moosa
We study the time dependence of the entanglement entropy of disjoint intervals following a global quantum quench in (1+1)-dimensional CFTs at large- with a sparse spectrum. The…
A Quantum Focussing Conjecture
Raphael Bousso, Zachary Fisher, Stefan Leichenauer +1
We propose a universal inequality that unifies the Bousso bound with the classical focussing theorem. Given a surface that need not lie on a horizon, we define a finite general…
Thermal Corrections to Entanglement Entropy from Holography
Stefan Leichenauer
We use holographic techniques to calculate the first thermal correction to the entanglement entropy of a cap-like region of a CFT defined on a sphere, successfully reproducing the…
