Description
To elucidate the AdS/CFT dictionary, it is useful to
consider fully general time-dependent situations, and use
general covariance as a guide in constructing a map. One
particularly interesting quantity, potentially revealing the
underlying structure of bulk geometry, is entanglement.
In case of holographic entanglement entropy in static
situations, Headrick and Freedman have recently proposed an
alternative to the Ryu-Takayanagi (entanglement entropy =
minimal surface area) prescription. In this talk I will
discuss covariant versions of this proposal.
