Entanglement entropy: Holography and renormalization group

Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: In this review the entanglement and Renyi entropies in quantum field theory are described from different points of view, including the perturbative approach and holographic dualities. The applications of these results to constraining renormalization group flows are presented effectively and illustrated with a variety of examples.
