Entanglement entropy, 2d black holes and the Ricci flow

Entanglement entropy, 2d black holes and the Ricci flow

I will discuss how compute entanglement entropy in two-dimensional CFT in flat space and in the presence of black hole. Then I will review the Ricci flow of a non-compact metric that describes a two-dimensional black hole. Finally, I will demonstrate that entanglement entropy is monotonic along the Ricci flow.
