Group Field Theory and Holographic Tensor Networks: Dynamical Corrections to the Ryu-Takayanagi formula

We introduce group field theory networks as a generalization of spin networks and of (symmetric) random tensor networks and provide a statistical computation of the Renyi entropy for a bipartite network state using the partition function of a simple interacting group field theory. The expectation value of the entanglement entropy is calculated by an expansion into stranded Feynman graphs and is shown to be captured by a Ryu- Takayanagi formula. For a simple interacting group field theory, we can prove the linear corrections, given by a polynomial perturbation of the Gaussian measure, to be negligible for a broad class of networks.
