Higher-dimensional Willmore energy as holographic entanglement entropy by Giorgos Anastasiou, Ignacio J. Araya, Pablo Bueno, Javier Moreno, Rodrigo Olea, Alejandro Vilar Lopez

“…Analogously to the previously known d = 3 case, we prove that for CFTs in d = 5 which are holographically dual to Einstein gravity, F(A) is equal to a four-dimensional version of the “Willmore energy” associated to a doubled and closed version of the Ryu-Takayanagi (RT) surface of A embedded in ℝ5. This generalized Willmore energy is shown to arise from a conformal-invariant codimension-two functional obtained by evaluating six-dimensional Conformal Gravity on the conically-singular orbifold of the replica trick. …”
