Entanglement Entropy
A measure in quantum information used to quantify the degree of entanglement between subsystems, defined as the von Neumann entropy of the reduced density matrix.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Entanglement entropy is a tool for quantifying the degree of entanglement between two quantum systems, defined as the von Neumann entropy of the remaining subsystem after taking the partial trace over the composite system.
The Ryu-Takayanagi formula in the holographic principle states that the entanglement entropy of a subregion in a boundary conformal field theory is proportional to the area of the corresponding minimal surface in the bulk spacetime.
