- Abstract: Entanglement entropy (EE) in interacting field theories has two important
issues: renormalization of UV divergences and non-Gaussianity of the vacuum. In
this letter, we investigate them in the framework of the two-particle
irreducible formalism. In particular, we consider EE of a half space in an
interacting scalar field theory. It is formulated as $\mathbb{Z}_M$ gauge
theory on Feynman diagrams: $\mathbb{Z}_M$ fluxes are assigned on plaquettes
and summed to obtain EE. Some configurations of fluxes are interpreted as
twists of propagators and vertices. The former gives a Gaussian part of EE
written in terms of a renormalized 2-point function while the latter reflects
non-Gaussianity of the vacuum.

Quantum systems governed by non-Hermitian Hamiltonians with $PT$ symmetry are special in having real energy eigenvalues bounded below and unitary time evolution.
We show how $PT$ symmetry may allow interpretations that evade ghosts and instabilities present in an interpretation of the theory within a Hermitian framework.

We continue the study of nonrelativistic quantum gravity associated with a family of Ricci flow equations.
This topological gravity is of the cohomological type, and it exhibits an $cal N=2$ extended BRST symmetry.
We demonstrate a standard one-step BRST gauge-fixing of a theory whose fields are $g_ij$, $ni$ and $n$, and whose gauge symmetries consist of (i) the topological deformations of $g_ij$, and (ii) the ultralocal nonrelativistic limit of space

We extend the primitive theory by gauging foliation-preserving spacetime symmetries.
