All the entropies on the light-cone

Horacio Casini, Eduardo Teste, Gonzalo Torroba

We determine the explicit universal form of the entanglement and Renyi entropies, for regions with arbitrary boundary on a null plane or the light-cone. All the entropies are shown…

Markov property of the CFT vacuum and the a-theorem

Horacio Casini, Eduardo Teste, Gonzalo Torroba

We use strong sub-additivity of entanglement entropy, Lorentz invariance, and the Markov property of the vacuum state of a conformal field theory to give a new proof of the irrever…

Modular Hamiltonians on the null plane and the Markov property of the vacuum state

Horacio Casini, Eduardo Teste, Gonzalo Torroba

We compute the modular Hamiltonians of regions having the future horizon lying on a null plane. For a CFT this is equivalent to regions with boundary of arbitrary shape lying on th…

Relative entropy and the RG flow

Horacio Casini, Eduardo Teste, Gonzalo Torroba

We consider the relative entropy between vacuum states of two different theories: a conformal field theory (CFT), and the CFT perturbed by a relevant operator. By restricting both…

Holographic RG flows, entanglement entropy and the sum rule

Horacio Casini, Eduardo Teste, Gonzalo Torroba

We calculate the two-point function of the trace of the stress tensor in holographic renormalization group flows between pairs of conformal field theories. We show that the term pr…

Vacuum Structure of Cosmologically Viable Quadratic Modifications of Gravity that are Functions of the Gauss-Bonnet Invariant

Israel Quiros, Eduardo Teste

We perform a thorough study of the theoretical consistency of recently proposed, viable, quadratic modifications of gravity that are functions of the the Gauss-Bonnet invariant, re…
