Description

Maximal Entanglement appears to be a key ingredient for the emergence
of symmetries. We first illustrate this phenomenon using two examples:
the emergence of conformal symmetry in condensed matter systems
and the relation of tensor networks to holography. We further present
a Principle of Maximal Entanglement that seems to dictate to a large
extend the structure of gauge symmetry.
