The gravity dual of Rényi entropy
نویسنده
چکیده
A remarkable yet mysterious property of black holes is that their entropy is proportional to the horizon area. This area law inspired the holographic principle, which was later realized concretely in gauge-gravity duality. In this context, entanglement entropy is given by the area of a minimal surface in a dual spacetime. However, discussions of area laws have been constrained to entanglement entropy, whereas a full understanding of a quantum state requires Rényi entropies. Here we show that all Rényi entropies satisfy a similar area law in holographic theories and are given by the areas of dual cosmic branes. This geometric prescription is a one-parameter generalization of the minimal surface prescription for entanglement entropy. Applying this we provide the first holographic calculation of mutual Rényi information between two disks of arbitrary dimension. Our results provide a framework for efficiently studying Rényi entropies and understanding entanglement structures in strongly coupled systems and quantum gravity.

A Preferred Definition of Conditional Rényi Entropy
The Rényi entropy is a generalization of Shannon entropy to a one-parameter family of entropies. Tsallis entropy too is a generalization of Shannon entropy. The measure for Tsallis entropy is non-logarithmic. After the introduction of Shannon entropy , the conditional Shannon entropy was derived and its properties became known. Also, for Tsallis entropy, the conditional entropy was introduced a...
متن کاملThe gravity dual of supersymmetric Rényi entropy
Supersymmetric Rényi entropies are defined for three-dimensional N = 2 superconformal field theories on a branched covering of a three-sphere by using the localized partition functions. Under a conformal transformation, the branched covering is mapped to S1 × H2, whose gravity dual is the charged topological AdS4 black hole. The black hole can be embedded into four-dimensional N = 2 gauged supe...
متن کاملThe Rate of Rényi Entropy for Irreducible Markov Chains
In this paper, we obtain the Rényi entropy rate for irreducible-aperiodic Markov chains with countable state space, using the theory of countable nonnegative matrices. We also obtain the bound for the rate of Rényi entropy of an irreducible Markov chain. Finally, we show that the bound for the Rényi entropy rate is the Shannon entropy rate.

In this letter, we consider static black hole in f(R) gravity.We take advantage from corrected entropy and temperature and investigate such black hole. Finally, we study the $ P - V $ critically and phase transition of corrected black hole with respect to entropy and temperature. Here also, we obtain the heat capacity for the static black hole in $ f(R) $ gravity. This calculation help us...
متن کاملSecurity Analysis of ɛ-Almost Dual Universal2 Hash Functions: Smoothing of Min Entropy Versus Smoothing of Rényi Entropy of Order 2
Recently, ε-almost dual universal2 hash functions has been proposed as a new and wider class of hash functions. This class well works even when the random seeds of hash function are subject to non-uniform distribution. This paper evaluates the security performance when we apply this kind of hash functions. We evaluate the security in several kinds of setting based on the L1 distinguishability c...
