Title: Entanglement entropy bounds for pure states of rapid decorrelation

Abstract: The entropy of the restriction of a pure quantum state of a lattice system to a subset is a measure of the entanglement between the system’s two components.
The talk will focus on conditions that imply an area-type bound on the entanglement in states in quantum lattice models, and the criterion’s application to the ground states of the quantum Ising model.
