This is a mini-review about the rapidly growing subject of dual holographic complexity (HC) for subsystems in conformal field theory (CFT) using a subregion volume enclosed by the entangled area in the dual bulk theory. This proposal is named as HC = volume. We use this proposal to compute the HC for different geometries in bulk theory. Because this HC quantity diverges as a result of the existence of the UV cutoff in the CFT, we proposed a suitable regularization scheme by subtracting the contribution of the background (pure) AdS spacetime from the deformation of the AdS geometry. Furthermore, the time-dependent geometries are investigated using the AdS/CFT proposal and hence, we proposed a time-dependent copy for HC in such nonstatic geometries. As an attempt to make a relation between HC and holographic entanglement entropy (HEE), inspired from the pure geometrical origins, we showed that HC and HEE which are duals to different volumes/areas in the bulk theory would be connected in a universal form for a general deformation AdS geometry (called holographic Cavalieri principle). As a pioneering idea we build a holographic model for [Formula: see text] critically in black holes via regularized HC as the dual thermodynamic volume. The second-order phase transitions in two-dimensional holographic superconductors is explained by using the regularized HC as an order parameter. All the results presented in this mini-review are collected from the list of published works of the first author of this paper. In several cases, we gave further explanation and clarification to make the ideas more understandable to the community. Other proposals for complexity like complexity as on shell action are not included in this review paper.

We use a simple holographic toy model to study global quantum quenches in strongly coupled, hyperscaling-violating-Lifshitz quantum field theories using entanglement entropy as a probe. Generalizing our conformal field theory results, we show that the holographic entanglement entropy of small subsystems can be written as a simple linear response relation. We use this relation to derive a time-dependent first law of entanglement entropy. In general, this law has a time-dependent term resembling relative entropy which we propose as a good order parameter to characterize out-of-equilibrium states in the post-quench evolution. We use these tools to study a broad class of quantum quenches in detail: instantaneous, power law, and periodic.

Abstract In this paper we provide a Chern-Simons gravity dual of a two dimensional conformal field theory on a manifold with boundaries, so called boundary conformal field theory (BCFT). We determine the correct boundary action on the end of the world brane in the Chern-Simons gauge theory. This reproduces known results of the AdS/BCFT for the Einstein gravity. We also give a prescription of calculating holographic entanglement entropy by employing Wilson lines which extend from the AdS boundary to the end of the world brane. We also discuss a higher spin extension of our formulation.

Holographic Entanglement Entropy

A metric is proposed to explore the noncommutative form of the anti-de Sitter (AdS) space due to quantum effects. It has been proved that the noncommutativity in AdS space induces a single component gravitoelectric field. The holographic Ryu–Takayanagi (RT) algorithm is then applied to compute the entanglement entropy (EE) in dual CFT2. This calculation can be exploited to compute ultraviolet–infrared (UV–IR) cutoff dependent central charge of the certain noncommutative CFT2. This noncommutative computation of the EE can be interpreted in the form of the surface/state correspondence. We have shown that noncommutativity increases the dimension of the effective Hilbert space of the dual conformal field theory (CFT).

In this paper, we will propose a universal relation between the holographic complexity (dual to a volume in AdS) and the holographic entanglement entropy (dual to an area in anti-de Sitter (AdS)). We will explicitly demonstrate that our conjuncture holds for all metrics asymptotic to [Formula: see text], and then argue that such a relation should hold in general due to the AdS version of the Cavalieri principle. We will demonstrate that it holds for Janus solution, which have been recently been obtained in type IIB string theory. We will also show that this conjecture holds for a circular disk. This conjecture will be used to show that the proposal that the complexity equals action and the proposal that the complexity equals volume can represent the same physics. Thus, using this conjecture, we will show that the black holes are fastest computers, using the proposal that complexity equals volume.

We review our recent formulation1,2 of computing entanglement entropy in a holographic way. The basic examples can be found by applying AdS/CFT correspondence and the holographic formula has successfully been checked in many examples of conformal field theories. We also explain the covariant formulation of holographic entanglement entropy which is closely related to the covariant entropy bound (Bousso bound) in an interesting way.

Abstract We study entanglement entropy inequalities in boundary conformal field theory (BCFT) by holographic correspondence. By carefully classifying all the configurations for different phases, we prove the strong subadditiviy and the monogamy of mutual information for holographic entanglement entropy in BCFT at both zero and finite temperatures.

Abstract Recently, it was proposed that a $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ deformed CFT is dual to a gravity theory in an asymptotically AdS spacetime at finite radial cutoff. Motivated by this proposal, we explore some aspects of Hyperscaling Violating geometries at finite cutoff and zero temperature. We study holographic entanglement entropy, mutual information (HMI) and entanglement wedge cross section (EWCS) for entangling regions in the shape of strips. It is observed that the HMI shows interesting features in comparison to the very small cutoff case: it is a decreasing function of the cutoff. It is finite when the distance between the two entangling regions goes to zero. The location of its phase transition also depends on the cutoff, and decreases by increasing the cutoff. On the other hand, the EWCS is a decreasing function of the cutoff. It does not show a discontinuous phase transition when the HMI undergoes a first-order phase transition. However, its concavity changes. Moreover, it is finite when the distance between the two strips goes to zero. Furthermore, it satisfies the bound EW ≥ $$ \frac{I}{2} $$ I 2 for all values of the cutoff.
