Correlations and Area in Classical SystemsCan prove:
Upper and lower bound on entropy of entanglement that are proportional to the number of oscillators on the surface
For ground state for general interactions For thermal states for finite ranged interactions General shape of the regions
Classical harmonic oscillators in thermal state: Classical correlations obey the same area law
Field limit 1-D yields logarithmic divergence 2-D bosons yield entanglement ~ area again 2-D fermions yield log-correction

Why is this interesting ?
Entropy of sub-system quantifies entanglement
Entropy also measures how disorder subsystem is and thusmeasures how much information is required to describe the system accurately.
Slow growth of entropy (saturation, area scaling)
Fast growth of entropy (volume scaling)
Efficient description on classical computer my be possible
Accurate description is much harder
