Thermodynamical Property of Entanglement Entropy for Excited States
Jyotirmoy Bhattacharya, Masahiro Nozaki, Tadashi Takayanagi +1
We argue that the entanglement entropy for a very small subsystem obeys a property which is analogous to the first law of thermodynamics when we excite the system. In relativistic…
Holographic Geometry of Entanglement Renormalization in Quantum Field Theories
Masahiro Nozaki, Shinsei Ryu, Tadashi Takayanagi
We study a conjectured connection between the AdS/CFT and a real-space quantum renormalization group scheme, the multi-scale entanglement renormalization ansatz (MERA). By making a…
Central Charges for BCFTs and Holography
Masahiro Nozaki, Tadashi Takayanagi, Tomonori Ugajin
In this paper, we study the logarithmic terms in the partition functions of CFTs with boundaries (BCFTs). In three dimensions, their coefficients give the boundary central charges,…
