Abstract

The (F1,D2,D8) brane configuration with Lif4(2)×S1×S5 geometry is a known Lifshitz vacua supported by massive Bμν field in type IIA theory. This system allows exact IR excitations which couple to massless modes of the fundamental string. Due to these massless modes the solutions have a flow to a dilatonic Lif4(3)×S1×S5 vacua in IR. We study the entanglement entropy on the boundary of this spacetime for the strip and the disk subsystems. To our surprise net entropy density of the excitations at first order is found to be independent of the typical size of subsystems. We interpret our results in light of the first law of entanglement thermodynamics.
