摘要
The strong subadditivity is the most important inequality which entanglement entropy satisfies. Based on the Ads/CFT conjecture, entanglement entropy in CFT is equal to the area of the minimal surface in AdS space. It is known that a Wilson loop can also be holographically compound from the minimal surface in AdS space. In this paper, we argue that Wilson loops satisfy a similar inequality, and find several evidence of it.
