Abstract

The entanglement entropy has been very important in various subjects such as quantum information theory, condensed matter physics, and quantum gravity. In the first half of this talk, I will give an overview of recent progresses in the holographic calculation of entanglement entropy. Next, I will apply it to string theory duals of anisotropic scale invariant theories (Lifshitz-like points), which are obtained from a string theory realization of fractional quantum Hall effect.
