The Holographic Multi-Entropy Cone
Abstract
We generalize the holographic entropy cone (HEC) to the holographic multi-entropy cone (HMEC) by adjoining multi-entropy coordinates to the standard bipartition entropy coordinates. We show that holographic states, through their multi-entropy vectors, form a rational polyhedral cone in multi-entropy space, and multicontraction maps provide exact certificates for holographic multi-entropy inequalities (HMEIs). We determine all facets of the n=3,4 HMECs, where n includes the purifier, and obtain seven fundamental HMEI orbits: two for n=3 and five for n=4. We further propose two structural conjectures: HEC facet inequalities are convex combinations of HMEC facet inequalities, and HMEC facets obey a balanced-but-not-too-balanced principle.
