Entanglement of heavy quark impurities and generalized gravitational entropy

Abstract We calculate the contribution from non-conformal heavy quark sources to the entanglement entropy (EE) of a spherical region in N=4 $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ SUSY Yang-Mills theory. We apply the generalized gravitational entropy method to non-conformal probe D-brane embeddings in AdS5×S5, dual to...
