AbstractWe study bulk entanglement entropy in even spacetime dimensions using the heat kernel method, which captures the universal piece of entanglement entropy, a logarithmically divergent term in even dimensions. In four dimensions, we perform explicit calculations for various shapes of boundary subregions. In particular, for a cusp subregion with an arbitrary opening angle, we find that the bulk entanglement entropy always encodes the same universal information about the boundary theories as the leading entanglement entropy in the large N limit, up to a fixed proportional constant. By smoothly deforming a circle in the boundary, we find that to leading order of the deformations, the bulk entanglement entropy shares the same shape dependence as the leading entanglement entropy and hence the same physical information can be extracted from both cases. This establishes an interesting local/nonlocal relation for holographic $$\mathrm {CFT}_3$$ CFT 3 . However, the result does not hold for higher dimensional holographic theories.

Abstract In this paper, we consider the evolution of the thermofield-double state under the double-traced operator that connects its both sides. We will compute the entanglement entropy of the resulting state using the replica trick for the large N field theory. To leading order, it can be computed from the two-point function of the theory, where, in CFTs, it is fixed by the symmetries. Due to the exponential decay of the interaction, the entanglement entropy saturates about the thermal time after the interaction is on. Next, we restrict ourselves to one dimension and assume that the theory at strong coupling is effectively described by the Schwarzian action. We then compute the coarse-grained entropy of the resulting state using the four-point function. The equality of the two entropies implies that the double-traced operators in our theory act coherently. In AdS/CFT correspondence where the thermofield-double state corresponds to a two-sided black hole, the action of a double-traced operator corresponds to shrinking or expanding the black hole in the bulk.

Abstract We study in detail various information theoretic quantities with the intent of distinguishing between different charged sectors in fractionalized states of large-N gauge theories. For concreteness, we focus on a simple holographic (2 + 1)-dimensional strongly coupled electron fluid whose charged states organize themselves into fractionalized and coherent patterns at sufficiently low temperatures. However, we expect that our results are quite generic and applicable to a wide range of systems, including non-holographic. The probes we consider include the entanglement entropy, mutual information, entanglement of purification and the butterfly velocity. The latter turns out to be particularly useful, given the universal connection between momentum and charge diffusion in the vicinity of a black hole horizon. The RT surfaces used to compute the above quantities, though, are largely insensitive to the electric flux in the bulk. To address this deficiency, we propose a generalized entanglement functional that is motivated through the Iyer-Wald formalism, applied to a gravity theory coupled to a U(1) gauge field. We argue that this functional gives rise to a coarse grained measure of entanglement in the boundary theory which is obtained by tracing over (part) of the fractionalized and cohesive charge degrees of freedom. Based on the above, we construct a candidate for an entropic c-function that accounts for the existence of bulk charges. We explore some of its general properties and their significance, and discuss how it can be used to efficiently account for charged degrees of freedom across different energy scales.

Abstract We derive the geodesic equation for determining the Ryu-Takayanagi surface in AdS3 deformed by single trace $$ \mu T\overline{T} $$ μT T ¯ + $$ {\varepsilon}_{+}J\overline{T} $$ ε + J T ¯ + $$ {\varepsilon}_{-}T\overline{J} $$ ε − T J ¯ deformation for generic values of (μ, ε+, ε−) for which the background is free of singularities. For generic values of ε±, Lorentz invariance is broken, and the Ryu-Takayanagi surface embeds non-trivially in time as well as spatial coordinates. We solve the geodesic equation and characterize the UV and IR behavior of the entanglement entropy and the Casini-Huerta c-function. We comment on various features of these observables in the (μ, ε+, ε−) parameter space. We discuss the matching at leading order in small (μ, ε+, ε−) expansion of the entanglement entropy between the single trace deformed holographic system and a class of double trace deformed theories where a strictly field theoretic analysis is possible. We also comment on expectation value of a large rectangular Wilson loop-like observable.

Abstract We apply the recently proposed quantum extremal surface construction to calculate the Page curve of the eternal Reissner-Nordström black holes in four dimensions ignoring the backreaction and the greybody factor. Without the island, the entropy of Hawking radiation grows linearly with time, which results in the information paradox for the eternal black holes. By extremizing the generalized entropy that allows the contributions from the island, we find that the island extends to the outside the horizon of the Reissner-Nordström black hole. When taking the effect of the islands into account, it is shown that the entanglement entropy of Hawking radiation at late times for a given region far from the black hole horizon reproduces the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of the Reissner-Nordström black hole with an additional term representing the effect of the matter fields. The result is consistent with the finiteness of the entanglement entropy for the radiation from an eternal black hole. This facilitates to address the black hole information paradox issue in the current case under the above-mentioned approximations.

The correspondence between supergravity (and string theory) on AdS space and boundary conformal field theory relates the thermodynamics of [Formula: see text] super-Yang–Mills theory in four dimensions to the thermodynamics of Schwarzschild black holes in anti-de Sitter space. In this description, quantum phenomena such as the spontaneous breaking of the center of the gauge group, magnetic confinement and the mass gap are coded in classical geometry. The correspondence makes it manifest that the entropy of a very large AdS Schwarzschild black hole must scale "holographically" with the volume of its horizon. By similar methods, one can also make a speculative proposal for the description of large N gauge theories in four dimensions without supersymmetry.

We investigate numerically fR gravity effects on certain AdS/CFT tools including holographic entanglement entropy and two-point correlation functions for a charged single accelerated Anti-de Sitter black hole in four dimensions. We find that both holographic entanglement entropy and two-point correlation functions decrease by increasing the acceleration parameter A, matching perfectly with literature. Taking into account the fR gravity parameter η, the decreasing scheme of the holographic quantities persist. However, we observe a transition-like point where the behavior of the holographic tools changes. Two regions meeting at such a transit-like point are shown up. In such a nomination, the first one is associated with slow accelerating black holes while the second one corresponds to a fast accelerating solution. In the first region, the holographic entanglement entropy and two-point correlation functions decrease by increasing the η parameter. However, the behavioral situation is reversed in the second one. Moreover, a cross-comparison between the entropy and the holographic entanglement entropy is presented, providing another counterexample showing that such two quantities do not exhibit similar behaviors.

Black Hole Solutions

Black hole solutions in higher dimensional Einstein and Einstein–Maxwell gravity have been discussed by Tangherlini as well as Myers and Perry a long time ago. These solutions are the generalizations of the familiar Schwarzschild, Reissner–Nordström and Kerr solutions of four-dimensional general relativity. However, higher dimensional generalization of the Kerr–Newman solution in four dimensions has not been found yet. As a first step in this direction we shall report on a new solution of the Einstein–Maxwell system of equations that describes an electrically charged and slowly rotating black hole in five dimensions.
