A = Tr ρk B entropy SA = SB depends on geometry of separation surface Σ

Introduction: general structure of EE

More generally, in d-dimensional curved space-time (with no boundary) EE is a Laurent series S = sd−2 ǫd−2 + sd−4 ǫd−4 + · · · + sd−2n ǫd−2n + · · · + s0 ln ǫ + s(g) sd−2−2n =

Σ

Rlk2p R is Riemann curvature and k is extrinsic curvature of Σ Since there are 2 normal vectors to Σ only even powers of k may appear Logarithmic term s0 is non-zero if d is even If space-time has boundary ∂M and if Σ intersects ∂M then the story is different: Log term may appear in any dimension d (odd or even)

Introduction: replica method

In Quantum Field Theory and in presence of rotational symmetry (in sub-space orthogonal to Σ) Tr ρn = Z[Cn] is partition function on conical space with angle deficit 2π(1 − n) at surface Σ so that EE is computed by differentiating w.r.t. n of effective action W (n) = − ln Z(n) on conical space S = (n∂n − 1)W (n)|n=1 Heat kernel method (field operator D = −∇2 + ξR) W = − 1 2 ˆ ∞

Puzzle of non-minimal coupling

If Riemann curvature appears in field operator (as in D = −∇2 + ξR) should we take into account its distributional part when consider on conical space Mn? If we do then (for scalar field) one finds for heat kernel aΣ

Applied for black holes this formula gives: For extremal black holes (with near horizon geometry H2 × S2) s0 = A 90 For the Schwarzschild black holes s0 = A − 3B 90 Note: for N = 4 SYM in our normalization one has that A = 3B. also related works of A.

Conclusion: why log terms are interesting after all?

  • Log terms are universal, do not depend on regularization
  • Log terms are geometrical: topology of entangling surface and conformal geometric

invariants

  • Log terms are related to conformal anomaly (still have to understand gauge fields)
  • Many interesting future directions: boundaries, interactions, strings..
