Entanglement Entropy of Dispersive Media from Thermodynamic Entropy in One Higher Dimension
A dispersive medium becomes entangled with zero-point fluctuations in the vacuum. We consider an arbitrary array of material bodies weakly interacting with a quantum field and compute the quantum mutual information between them. It is shown that the mutual information in D dimensions can be mapped t...
